Listened to this via the wonderful LeVar Burton podcast, with great musical accompaniment by Zhenya Ross - a wonderful way to experience this story.
A young man sees a woman in a square that he swears he knows but doesn't fully remember.

A flower seller sees a familiar woman and can't place her. Story inspired by Argentina's Disappeared.

I listened to this on the Levar Burton Reads podcast. It is always amazing to me how well these short story authors can develop a story and characters in so short a time. This story was about an alternate universe Russia where the children of royals were adopted children. A brother florist recognizes his sister, who is now a countess (or something like that).
