Night mode
Rocco watched for a long time as, in a slow-motion movie, his lover disappeared into the dangers of the night. She wasn’t a prostitute, but something about her demeanour usually made him think of her that way. The lingering sound of her high heels hitting the concrete pavement in steady rhythm seemed to mark the time for their next meeting. He could always hear it wherever he was: in the shower, at the gas station, or whilst waiting for his new customers and imagining that she could nimbly slip through the passenger door and sit next to him, unlike the rest of his clientele always taking seats in the back. Rocco often fantasised that they were making love in the backseat, although that never happened in mundane reality. The ability to dip his hands into her long, soft blonde hair made his heart tremble every time. And it had started so innocently that every time he remembered it, déjà vu would fill his eyes with tears.

Phenomenal Owl from the Abbey
The chickcharney (also known as the chickcharnie or chickcharnee) is a legendary creature in the folklore of Andros Island in the Bahama Islands. It is said to live in the forests, is furry or feathered, and about 3 feet (0.91 metres) tall, with an ugly appearance resembling an owl. In common legend, if a traveller meets a chickcharney and treats it well, they will be rewarded with good luck, while treating a chickcharney badly will result in bad luck and hard times.
