Fault Line (A Short Story)

Fault Line (A Short Story)

Ryann Eastman
3.1/5 ( ratings)
This story was originally published in Day One, a weekly literary journal dedicated to short fiction and poetry from emerging writers.Whether she likes it or not, Alice always picks up what her sister, Leila, leaves behind—her boyfriend, a tobacco addiction, the overwhelming responsibility of taking care of their ailing mother. After a tense year of not speaking to each other, Leila reenters Alice’s life in a flurry, claiming to have finally found their estranged father in the Nevada desert. Together the sisters set out toward the middle of nowhere, but they know only one thing about the supposed father they’re looking for: he belongs to a coven that believes it can control the weather.In this poignant portrayal of the messiness of family, Alice and Leila discover what abandonment truly feels like—and it has nothing to do with their father.
