Red Berry Stew
RED BERRY STEW Mary Grimm Essie was looking for a place to hide. She didn’t want to put her clothes away in the dresser in her new room. The inside of the drawers smelled, even though her mother had scrubbed them with bleach. She jumped down the steps of the back porch, something they hadn’t had before. She liked the back porch, but she tried not to, out of loyalty to their old house. This yard was small, with a big garage, and the next-door house was close, with a narrow weedy space between, dim and green. Green grass, green bushes, green vines. Essie saw something move out of the corner of her eye in the green, a wriggling movement, like a fish swimming in water. It was a girl wearing a faded red dress. She had on dirty white socks and no shoes, and her yellow hair was braided on one side and hanging loose on the other. She stopped moving when she saw Essie, her fingers working on the 180 RED BERRY STEW 181 braid, pulling it apart. When she finished with her hair, she pushed it back, hooking it behind her ear. “Was that your truck yesterday?” she asked. “Yes,” Essie said. Their furniture had come in a moving truck, and all yes- terday afternoon men had gone back and forth between the truck and the new house carrying chairs and lamps and beds. It had been strange to watch the familiar things of her life being handled by men who spat on the ground and said words she wasn’t supposed to hear, groaning under the weight of the re- frigerator and the big sofa. -
