  • Anna B's Owner, a Short Story by Judith Mercado
    Home Anna B's Owner Winter/Spring by Judith Mercado 2011 “I hear your brother’s living on a boat in the Florida Keys.” Autumn/Winter 2011 I stared at this childhood friend, in town for a short visit, who had no idea what he had just done. Finally, I heard myself say, “Really? Where in the Florida Keys?” Summer 2010 “I don't know where exactly.” He squinted. “It's not Key West or I think I'd Spring 2010 remember. Not Key Largo either . .” Winter 2010 Please don’t remember, Bob. Autumn 2009 I worked at keeping my face placid. If Bob thought my interest was trivial, he might not try so hard to remember, and there was still hope for my ordered life. Summer 2009 Spring 2009 “Marathon,” he said finally. “That's it. That’s where he is.” Autumn 2008 I smiled stiffly. Marathon. A tangible destination that made my brother come alive again. Summer 2008 It had been six years since I heard one of those bits and pieces about my Spring/Summer peripatetic brother Dan that occasionally came my way. Like how he went out to 2008 New Mexico and ran a trailer park outside Chimayó for a while. Another time, someone said he was tending a gas station in Amarillo. No one ever talked about Winter/Spring his photography, whose artistry had once been so promising. No one mentioned 2008 anything about promise at all. Editor's Note I didn’t ask about it now. I had caught my second wind and regained some of the serenity I spent twenty-one years cultivating.
