    Summary

    All things considered, staying right where she was seemed like the best course of action.
    What a perfectly reasonable place to stay: the top of a stupid hill.
    No more walking, ever again.
    She would live and die on the top of this cursed hill.
    Maybe someone would stumble upon her remains someday and bestow upon her the title of “Witch of the Awful, Terrible Fourth Hill”.
    Maybe they’d tell children to stay away from this gods-forsaken place, or else the witch would turn them into slugs. What a beautiful legacy.

    “Hum… hello?”

    The fantasy of her lasting fame was rudely interrupted by a voice.
    A voice seemingly belonging to a boy standing a few steps below her.

    Summary

    “I’ve read your poetry, you know,” Neil admits casually after a few beats of silence, as if he’s discussing the weather and not revealing earth-shattering information, while his eyes remain trained on the football game playing on the TV in the corner of the bar.

    Did he know? Could he see right through all of Todd’s poetry, see all of the desperate clinging onto his glory days which were limited to five brief months because of his disappearance? Todd almost wants to lunge at him, wants to throttle this boy-turned-man for getting to know all of the agonies which traced his mind while he was stuck in this dingy bar still not even being able to tell if a smirk or frown was pulling at Neil’s lips.

    Of course he doesn’t lunge, – when has Todd lunged for anything in his life? – just struggles to not choke on his spit while he rasps out a simple “yeah?” as if it’s a full question. This will be the death of him, he’s decided.

    Or in which it’s 1981, New York Times bestselling poet Todd Anderson has run out of words to say, and he just so happens to run into the only boy who always knew how to speak up for him.
