A story inspired by this tattoo · fiction

The moon came up over the allotments before the primroses had quite decided to open, so Nell stood at the water butt with the can and waited, the way her mother had taught her. Every evening that August the flowers went pale at the same hour, and every evening Mr Okafor from plot nine complained the light was stealing his runner beans. She let him complain. Her own patch was all night things: nicotiana, the pale moonflower vine that climbed the fence, and a row of white stocks that smelled like a bakery after closing.

Her brother Tobias had drawn the design on the back of a seed packet the summer before he left for the rigs. An infinity sign, one loop fat with a crescent moon that looked out at her with its eyes half shut, the other loop fat with a word he had written in a loopy hand because he said he could never manage straight letters at sea. Love, it said, and the pencil had gone over the e twice where he pressed too hard. She still had the packet, tucked in the potting shed under a tin of twine.

He came back in October with a new scar on his wrist and no plans, and found her on the bench with the packet open. 'You kept it,' he said, as if he had expected the bin. She told him the moon was looking the wrong way. He said it was looking at her, which was the point, and she laughed so hard the watering can tipped over and soaked both their boots.

Later, when the frost had come and the stocks had gone to brown paper, she drew the loop again on the shed door in chalk. She did not lift the chalk once. Start at the moon, follow the curve round, and you ended back where you began, which was the only sort of ending she trusted anymore.
