Selena
As much as I loved harvest season, I always felt a sense of relief when it was over. With all the grapes picked and the vines bare of leaves as well, winter had started. There was still a lot of work to be done, like pruning the branches to ensure the best harvest for next season, but I was finally able to have some semblance of work-life balance again.

A beautiful shiny car stopped in front of the curb, taking up more space than necessary. A few passing cars honked in frustration but the car’s engine stalled and a driver got out with a polite smile. “Selena?”
I gulped. “That’s me.”
