Space

The necklace and the 17st award and the KIA radio. Pancake mix and rum and vilely dusty orange protein bars.

Their shared thermos.

Kojo’s birthday card.

Her own moonstone ring.

All mementos of the space he’d filled in her life like a gently flowing waterfall. Soft marshes along an ox-bow river. Sandbanks in a lagoon, taking up residence in the spaces she’d ignored as tricky puzzle pieces. Jigsaw blanks outlined and cordoned off while she focused on the familiar forms of places known and well-worn with routine.
