A story inspired by this tattoo · fiction

Dear Avi, the rain started before the lorries had unloaded, and by noon the awnings along the lane sagged over the cabbages like wet sails. Nobody came for lemons. Mr Haddad sold his umbrellas three times over and still stood in his doorway counting coins he had already counted.

At two o'clock a girl with a torn carrier bag ducked under my stall and asked whether I could write a word on a scrap of card for her mother's birthday. She had a pencil behind one ear and a look of someone who had run the whole length of the market. I wrote the word she dictated, small and careful, the way Father taught us to letter the price tags. When she asked what it meant, I did not know how to say it in English, so I told her it was a bird that always comes back.

The rain stopped at four. A real sparrow came down off the wire above the fish crates and sat on the rim of my tin of pins, shaking itself dry and looking at me as though I owed it rent. I thought of you on that boat, and how you wrote that you could not sleep for the gulls screaming over the stern.

I am keeping the spare card. It sits in the glass of my till, next to the change. When the market closes I will post this letter without a stamp, because you always said a letter should arrive the way a bird does, by accident and all at once. Write back soon. Miriam.
