The short story “The Kiss”, is written by Elizabeth Baines in 2019, and is a non-fictional story about three people´s way, of taking care of their own lives after experiencing adversity.
The beginning of the short story is in medias res, and there is three main characters in the story, one girl, and two boys. The three main characters have all had a tough past, through their years with abuse, anger, discrimination and alienation.
The short story is called “The Kiss”, because the one girl and one of the two boys, are standing in the tube station in London, reaching for a kiss and waiting for each others lips to touch, and in the same time, the other boy has placed his hands on the detonate, to the bomb in the tube station in London.
The short story has a deep understanding, and it tells us, two different ways of taking care of our lives, after having a tough past. We can either try to forget about the past, and search for the best and happiest times of our life, or we can continue to feel lost, and therefore looking for a way to get revenge.
