Playing Chess in Hanoi

by Allan Corona

A narrow alley in Hanoi glows under the harsh orange sodium of a streetlamp, illuminating a makeshift chess game on a weathered plastic table. An elderly man in a faded blue shirt leans over the board, his hand hovering over a worn pawn, while his opponent, a young student in a school uniform, watches intently. A black chess clock sits between them, its digital display glowing red, marking the tension of the match. Nearby, a metal coffee tin holds spare pieces, and a pair of mops leans against the damp brick wall, forgotten in the corner.
