Chapter 4. Stone, paper, scissors

Finn smiled as he ran the thin silver chain of Vies' necklace

through his fingers. A small flat pendant hung from it with a

simple "V" engraved on it.

He found it when he got back to Oxford and unpacked his things.

Vie had slipped it into his pocket when they'd said their goodbyes

at the train station in St.Ives.

How long ago was that?

It couldn't be more than a year, but it already seemed like

a lifetime ago.

Authors Note

I will add to this chapter in the next few days and weeks.

This is my first attempt at writing in this form.

It has been - and still is - a constant process of addition,

subtraction, revision, reflection, revelation and self education.

Thank you for taking the time to read what I have written.
