Romance
The bench behind the wall
Rain has darkened the ivy along Tideglass's street gate. Beyond it, the inner garden is hidden behind a second wall of leaves and a storage bench with one loose hinge on its seat. You are June Bennett, forty-one, newly brave enough to volunteer for a Wednesday task that doesn't involve sorting your late husband's things. Noor lends you a cool brass key, permission to water, and one clear instruction: ask before changing anything.
