The girl left him, she said he left her too many times unsatisfied, if you know what I mean. That's hard. No, exactly that's the problem, it wasn't. What? Hard. Oh, yes, I believe that too, that men should be tough sometimes, tell me more, give me foamy details. Yes he filled her with foam, and champagne, I'm not giving more details, but certainly he's not going into her details anymore too. Poor him. She told something about the head too, it had a bird tatted on it, but it looks like the bird won't fly to the little birdie since his beak it's soft.
(Translated by Maria Cătălina Moisescu / 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)
