The Ghost

Randall Malone tiptoes along the length of the silvery trailer, his face side-lit by moonlight. He extends a shivering hand and plants it against the metal, presses his nose against a window. Seeing Ennis DelMar for the first time does not suffuse him with the cold, metallic, angry feeling he has

Wonderful writing and very original. And I adore your avatar ♥

Clever you! That wasn't at all what I was expecting from the title. Sad, and kind of creepy, Randall sneaking up to Riverton to steal a look at Ennis. Sad, and kind of creepy, just like Randall himself.

And I like the Forever Blue reference in the last line.

I love this! Randall is a character that leaves everyone lots of space to interpret and what an interesting take you have here.

Instead he almost drowns in unwanted sympathy as the grey, bent shadow figure on the other side of the glass slides down in a worn armless chair, black eyes like two holes in a sheet of white paper guard a pair of shirts hanging from a coat hanger with trepidation.

*sighs* Poor Ennis...

Hi there. Thanks for your input and your comment. I´m very happy you liked it. Yes, Randall is a very open character and we dont really know much about him at all so it´s interesting to speculate.
Take care
