I miss you so much. The moments with you. Our silly jokes. Our pointless arguments. Your smile. Your contagious laughter. With tears. Your eyes. Of everything you meant to me. Of the good you did me by your mere presence. I'd like another flight. One last flight. With you. That's all I want. Where can I find you? Give me a meeting place. Give me a sign. I'll be there. I spread my wings and fly smoothly. I'll look for you. Wait for me, my Love.
(Translated by Anca Maria Florea / University of Bucharest, Faculty of Foreign Languages and Literatures, MTTLC, year I / Corrected by Silvia Petrescu, coordinator of the translations)Real Fiction is a collective project started in 2013 by Florin Piersic Jr. The concept of Real Fiction continued to exist as a Facebook group, after a volume of stories was published at Humanitas Publishing House. (In February 2023, the group has 10,500 members.) The authors write ultra-short stories, with the texts limited to 500 characters (in Romanian, so the length of the English translation might be a little different) - a flash-fiction exercise on a topic that changes every few days. The group's coordinators are Florin Piersic Jr., Gabriel Molnar, Răzvan Penescu, and Luchian Abel. (Drawing by Adrian T. Roman)
