Maybe I'm biased, but once again, P. Djeli Clark never ceases to amaze me.

Amazing short story, even shorter than [b:A Dead Djinn in Cairo|29635542|A Dead Djinn in Cairo (Dead Djinn Universe, #0.1)|P. Djèlí Clark|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1459173382l/29635542._SX50_.jpg|49993780]. The style is so enchanting, simple, but with surprising chasms of depths. I'm looking forward to continuing the series in the near future.
Again, everyone should read this. It's short, it's free, it's gorgeous.
