Collusion Short Story Alternate Ending
“Collusion”
*
I am standing in the gallery, staring at the wall where a painting hangs square. The dark oils on the canvas swirl violently towards a small pool of silver at the bottom. A vague scarlet stain hovers above. I turn, and she’s there, just a silhouette framed by the sunlight streaming through the window behind her, and I can't see her face, just the blinding sunlight, setting her aglow.
She kisses me, and I hear her voice, floating faintly, saying, The children are waiting, it’s time to go, and we smile, and I count the shadows as we walk past the gallery windows.
