There was also a story recently (not even sure which magazine) about a woman visiting her parents' home. IIRC, she saw her parents sitting at the table, and her mother offered her a drink. She checked the pocket of her father's coat and found $20 there.

If I understood correctly, they weren't actually there.

Anyone else think so?

Is this also one of the new writing styles?

I understand that poetry is supposed to be subject to interpretation. I think a story should be clear, not expect me to imagine what's really happening.

I also noticed this. I assumed it was supposed to be a memory, but it was confusing.

As an abuse survivor, my ds niece does not trigger me... Story isn't so realistic.

It didn't trigger you mabe but someone else might be triggered by it. My nephew was born with some health issues and I remember being terrified to get close to him for fear of losing him.
Did not understand the story though.
