Serene Sea |
Hidden in the corner
of the attic under piles of dusty newspapers, she noticed a trunk. Inside,
amongst old diaries, curls of hair and baby shoes, there was a letter dated
1905. She read through “… dangerous and… are sick. Stay away.... has purple
eyes. Do not marry him... become killers…” She was shocked. Who was this
person? Above the trunk was an old mirror. She looked up and she understood.
The stranger did marry into the family despite the warning letter, because she
too had purple eyes and this inexplicable urge that had driven her to a
complete solitude.
