This is a collection of short stories from my short-fiction column.
"The Bird in the Cage": A gentle transfer student, an innocent girl, and the fluttering hearts of two young people: the very essence of youth. A secretive stalker, an unsuspecting prey. Who has fallen into whose trap? The best hunters often appear as prey.
"I Still Died in Your Arms in the End," also known as "What to Do When You Become a Beard Wife" and "The Story After I Killed My Husband": Love is sacred. Since you swore to me that we would never part for as long as we lived, then I shall share both life and death with you. Guess where my husband went. To love others and be loved in return: that is everything, that is the law of the universe. We exist for love. Those comforted by love fear nothing and no one., French writer Ponchard
"The Gods' Playground": A city on the margins, a playground for the gods. The Death God in the star chart swings down a great scythe. What does it matter if you escape?
Standalone stories sparked by random ideas.
