The Vanishing

The Vanishing

Tim Krabbé2003
Petrol gauge broken, anxiety and tempers flaring, young lovers Rex and Saskia pull in at a service station to refuel. As soon as they stop the tension is relieved. Rex buries two coins in a crack at the base of a fence post as a secret sign of their love- Saskia goes off to buy a couple of cold drinks and vanishes. Eight years later Rex is still haunted by her. Then one day he sees scrawled in the grime of a yellow car parked outside his window two lines- REX YOU'RE SO SWEET SANDRA and WHEN I WRITE THIS IT SHOWS THE PAIN... and the obsession burns in his blood once again.
