“Are those carnations?”

Harry looked over to see a tall, thin man wearing dark clothes. Harry thought that he must be rather hot in the summer heat. “Yeah. They are.”

The man nodded, then asked after a slight hesitation, “Do you recognize me?”

Harry shook his head, flummoxed. “Should I?”

The man sighed. “Yes.”

“Oh,” was all Harry could think to say. “I’m sorry.”


It's summer break, and Harry is enjoying the two months off of school with his family. A strange man keeps trying to talk to him, however, and he increasingly begins to feel that something is not right.

Keep looking. For oddities. You will find them.
