STORY STARTER

Submitted by Celaid Degante

Leaving

Write about a character leaving something, or someone, they love.

Magnetic Solstice

What you are about to read

Is a true story.


Years of resentment

Being left behind

Being put second,

or third

to his mom,

his job.

Resentment has grown

to complacency.

Going about my day

Like a “good wife” should.

Until...

A spark!

A smile!

A laugh!

...just not from...him.

Talking at work

turned to texting at home.

Lunching at work

turned to dinners out.

An undeniable attraction

A positive with a negative

A magnetic solstice

When we first kissed.
