Lola, Death Awaits You at the End of the Street and Other Stories

Lola fell from the veranda rail and hit the curbstone at the edge of the lawn, three meters below.
Shocked, Lacrima and her mother rushed down, and to their horror, found Lola’s perfectly beautiful china face and her lovely sky and sea eyes shattered at the foot of the veranda.
“Lola’s dead, Lola’s dead!” screamed Lacrima, trembling all over as an uncontrollable flood of tears streamed down her face.
Her mother embraced her, reassuring that Lola wasn’t dead, just injured. She promised to take Lola to Uncle Nicolai’s clinic and that within a week she would return home healthy and whole.
Lacrima, trembling uncontrollably, barely registered Aunt Mina’s words. She only remembered that because of Uncle Mihai’s actions, Lola was now so badly injured, lying in Uncle Nicolai’s clinic. She also recalled her own curses, wishing him dead in Hitler’s grave. Distressed, fearful, and crying, she clung to her mother’s leg and whispered in a choked voice, “Mommy, I killed Uncle Mihai; he died because of my curses!”
