They say that everyone in the world has a twin... well... what if that twin had the same name, but a much more exciting and adventurous life? Enjoy! (Please?)
 

We'll Always Have Zanzibar
by Audry Baxter

 


 
"Aramina? Aramina West?" called an unfamiliar voice on the crowded platform, causing me to pause and turn.

Working through the crowd towards me, holding my eyes with his... startlingly green ones... was the object of my bedroom fantasies come to life. A shock of unkempt black hair... clean shaven, rugged face...

"I'm sorry --" I began, interrupted by a passionate kiss.

"I've thought about it. I don't care that you used to be a man," whispered this stranger, "Take me back. Please. If you won't, well, we'll always have Zanzibar."

"But I've never been to Zanzibar..." I said, breathless and confused.
