Fine line · Chest · Black and grey · Photo

A close crop shows a woman with long wavy hair in a black vest top over a black lace bralette, with several layered gold necklaces, one with a small cross pendant. A small, single-line outline heart sits on the upper chest near the shoulder, drawn in black ink with even, thin linework and no shading. The composition is tightly framed on the chest and shoulders, with soft, even lighting and a plain pale background.

A story inspired by this tattoo · fiction

The old pear tree at the bottom of Hollin's orchard had stopped bearing the summer Ada Pennick's husband went off to the coast and did not come back. Nobody in the village thought much about it until the following August, when a single fruit ripened on the lowest branch, small and hard, and shaped, when you turned it in the light, like a heart somebody had drawn in a hurry with one unbroken line.

Ada picked it on a Tuesday. She carried it up the lane in her apron, past the chapel and the blacksmith's shut doors, and asked the carrier's boy where a man might be found who had sailed from Bristol and not written. The boy said he had heard of a ship called the Constance lost off the Scilly rocks, but the pear in her apron was warm from the sun and smelled of cloves, and she did not believe him.

She went home and cut the pear in two with her mother's knife. Inside, the seeds lay in a ring, and where the core should have been there was a single curled line of brown, like the stroke of a pen that had lifted only once. She sat with the two halves on the windowsill until the light went. Then she planted the seeds in the cold frame behind the house, one for each year she had waited, and went to bed without lighting the lamp.

By spring there were eleven seedlings, and by the next autumn only one stood tall enough to stake. Ada grafted it onto the old root herself, using a knife and a strip of wet linen, and when the new wood took she told nobody. The tree bore its first fruit the year after, a plain green pear that tasted of very little. She ate it on the back step anyway, and it was the sweetest thing she had ever eaten.
