Between the Lines - Eleni Noah
"Fernando took off his glasses and massaged his eyes. He couldn't believe he was going through such a ridiculous thing. He'd heard of situations like that before, but they were always someone else's anecdotes. Not his. He'd been so careful with all of them, just to avoid all that drama".
The nice thing about being a writer is how people react when they find out about our profession. They immediately dedicate themselves to giving us material. “This happened to me and I think it could be useful for one of your stories”. That was the case with Eleni's therapist. He told her he had a patient who had recently confessed she was in love with him. When Eleni asked him how common such situations were, he surprised her with a “very common”. Sometimes, loneliness or bad experiences play tricks on people and confuse them.
With her therapist’s permission, Eleni wrote this story months ago in just a few days and she had to confess: the entire process was a lot of fun.

ABOUT TWO SOUTHERN CORNERS
We are Nelly Sarpong from West Africa and Eleni Noah from South America.
The idea for Two Southern Corners was born a year ago after we met and became friends at a dinner party. We instantly connected thanks to our common passion for writing.
After Covid hit the world, and we all had to quarantine, we started talking about how we could write consistently. Then the idea of having readers (like you) lit up like a bulb. The thought of you, eager and waiting every week for one of our stories, inspired us. So, you, our dear reader, are the heart of this site. If it weren’t for you, none of these short stories would exist.
The name of our site is pretty simple yet interesting. Paraguay and Ghana are both in the southern part of the world and on almost exactly opposite sides. Also, even though Latinos and Africans live so far away, we found out we have so much in common; never-ending summers, bright personalities, vibrant cultures, and even similar ways of thinking. That’s the spirit behind the name Two Southern Corners.
