You are listening to a Clarkshould magazine podcast with your host and narrator Kate Baker.

Greetings, Clarkshould citizens. I hope this podcast finds you extraordinarily well.

This is our seventh story for the month of November, 2024, issue 218.

I hope that you've enjoyed this issue thus far. There's been lots of great stories and still two more yet to come.

Thank you.

From the bottom of my heart, you let me do something I really love doing.

Our story is titled Technicolor Bath and is by Rahim Alvi. Rahm Alvi is a Pakistani

Canadian writer, artist and a lover of all things related to science, cosmic eldridge abominations, and good food.

When he's not writing, he's either wearing his wrists out from extremely intricate ink drawings or hanging out with stray cats.

So, my dear listener, I hope that you can sit back, relax, and let me tell you a story.

I see you on the other side.

Star Dust.

A strikingly blue supernova leaving drift tracks in my night sky.

I want to tell you that I love you and to beg you to love me back.

But I'm afraid I've become something you won't quite like.

My biggest fear, huh?

I guess my biggest fear is walking through my front door, seeing and not recognizing you, then myself.

Then the home I sit in and the life we're living, and having all that coalesce into falling out of love with you.

And when would this happen?
