Lockdown Stranger

Flying solo for a long time, then getting lucky post lockdown: "Lockdown Stranger" by Jasika is a story most readers will be able to relate to, having lived through 2020.



Endless Zoom meetings, same old sweatpants, eating alone, masturbating: Protagonist Anya is slowly but surely growing frustrated with lockdown measures. There's only so many vibrators and dildos a girl can have, right? Anya never realized how much she needed human touch… until she got entirely deprived of it.



After months of sexual drought (who knew you could grow tired of touching yourself, too?), as cafés open again, Anya runs into the same man she'd already been ogling before the world came to a halt. Sparks fly right away as Louis introduces himself. Craving each other's bodies, the grinding, sweating, moaning, and writhing of real sex, a new chapter in Anya's life begins. What better way to celebrate the end of lockdown?
