Late August
A Short Story
About
John Greenbrier is a man of routines — the ball game, a grilled cheese, the drive home past the beach he never visited enough. But on a late August evening in Narragansett, a young nurse in a faded Camaro leaves her daughter on his doorstep, and John finds himself doing the one thing he's worst at: being present.
Late August is a quiet story about grief, solitude, and the small, unplanned moments that remind us we're still here.
