A reunion worth dreaming about.

Naples, 1944. Elena, aged twelve, is left orphaned and traumatized by war. But a gift from an African American soldier shows her that kindness can still exist in a cruel world.

Post-war, and now a young woman, the memory of the soldier obsesses her.

Eleven years after their first meeting, their paths cross again and Elena’s life will never be the same.

A short story.
