Romance
by
Ruth A. Rouff
Recently
I was walking through “Bargain Book Warehouse,” a
store filled with discounted books located in a nearby strip
mall. The books were publisher’s overstocks: the unwanted
step-children of the publishing industry. When I passed by the
tables heavily laden with discounted paperback romances, I
recalled how I used to heave armfuls of these books into stinking
trash compactors in Kmarts throughout southern New Jersey.

The
Possibility of Her Parents’
Dismay Was the Cost of
Privacy
by
Kunle Abodunde
But
Julia said her parents weren’t surprised at all when she
explained to them that we’d moved in together. Once told,
they invited us, as a couple, to meet them in Great Neck. Julia
assured me that the invitation had been made with the best of
intentions, that spirits were high, and retribution was the
furthest thing from anyone’s mind....

Blad
Estevez
by
Joseph M. Ditta
Now,
a young man of twenty years, Blad Estevez is prowling the streets
of Rockville Center, where he has just stepped off the bus.
He has left his old neighborhood in Freeport and with it his old
way of life in order to find the justice for which he thirsts or,
in the last extremity, to assail the injustice he expects....

The
Summer of Huffing Glue
by
Jamey Gallagher
The
National Guard was helping nurses and doctors wheel patients out
to waiting buses. Above them, the sky was a purple mountainscape.
The rain had momentarily let up, but floodwater already covered
our ankles. Mrs. Grueller cupped a cigarette in her hand,
exhaling smoke through her nostrils....

Stone
Song
by
Mark Jacobs
It
began
in Delhi. It began with admiration, an impulse Cordelia no longer
expected to feel. Early, east sun rising, from her room on the
fifth floor at the Oberoi she stood watching a woman with an
elegant long back do laps in the green pool. Such unthinking
confidence in her strokes. With a body that worked so splendidly
who needed mind? Cordelia basked in the woman’s visible
vigor. When she sat, it was in the wheelchair....

Kilauea
by
Kori Frazier Morgan
Karen
did not want to go to Hawaii. Their parents made her.
She was a nursing student at Kent State, on her way to spend a
weekend with her ex-fiancé Steven, who had been in Vietnam
for a year, who did not know yet that he was her ex-fiancé.
For the last six months, she'd been trying to find the right way
to break up with him, though her options were limited—a
letter to Binh Phuoc, an abrupt change in subject during his
brief, infrequent telephone calls....

Aftertaste
by
Tushar Rai
There
was no aftertaste. No lingering sense of smell either. Maanas
sighed. His torso fell back as if it had got bored of the
constant need of a perfect straight posture. There was almost
never a slouch in his gait. Whenever his urge for sitting at ease
tried to manifest itself, an elusive neuron of his unsuspecting
mind would bring forth words of his mother:...

Crooners
and Guilt
by
Bob Skoggins
Charles
could see his father peeking out the window as he walked up to
the porch. Wade was waiting for him and opened the door before
his son could knock. The house was messy. There were bags,
wrappers, and napkins all over the coffee table. Different
colored stains covered the couch. In the corner were stacks of
records. Charles wouldn’t have been surprised to see a goat
in the corner. …

The
Howls behind the Waves
by
Richie Swanson
I
knew my mom died having me, but Auntie never said anything about
my dad, and I about hoped out my heart, hoofing it beside the
surf, expecting a letter from him. Every day the mail was
due, I climbed Na’ah Rock and looked up the beach, waiting
for Johnny Pederson to come around Nesika Head, and that’s
why Otter Jack called me Puffin Ellie instead of Jean Ellie.

New
Room
by
Michael Welch
Rick
recalled the moment he suggested to Amanda that they move in
together, pulling her tight in the clutter of their friends Hosea
and Lila’s kitchen, the hard morning light falling upon the
piled, maculated dishes, a thin swinging door away from the
uneven bursts of laughter, the noon party in honor of baby Che’s
first step. ...
