What a beautiful story, @itsostylish. So ethereal. We sense the presence of the person being spoken to, though he is not truly there. For a while, I thought perhaps the narrator was the visiting spirit, then I thought it is much more likely that the narrator is being wistful about someone who has passed on. I love your sparse writing and how you give readers so much visual and sensory richness, yet challenge them to complete the story in their own minds.
