The Other Side
“It was getting dark outside, the street lights were lit. I sat at a table by myself at the back, trying to collect my thoughts, to make sense of the horrifying episode and get rid of the unpleasant dizziness I felt. I was not alone for long. A dignified old gentleman wearing a white cravat came into my corner and sat down at the table.

It was only then that I realised something must have happened.MoreLess
