End.

He turned the laptop back on. The PDF opened where he had left it. A new annotation had appeared at the bottom of the screen, though there had been no one to write it.

Years later, Halim—older, with a ledger thick with the economy of a small life—sat by a window that looked out over a city that had itself been altered by stories. Names returned to people who had lost them; a clockmaker opened a shop again and sold repaired hours at a town fair. The market of memory had become a cautious one, practicing reciprocity as ritual.
