Mishap Marriage (2013)
“Snuggling into her pillows, she waited, fully expecting him to return.
But he didn’t return. Feeling bereft, she sat up and swung her legs to the floor and looked around the room. A gentle breeze blowing in through the open balcony windows stirred the curtains. On a sigh she stood up and went to her dressing table. That was the moment when her eyes lighted on the letter propped up against the mirror.
Tentatively she reached out and picked it up, looking at it curiously, suddenly relucta...nt to open it, for she feared the contents. She was right to, for in his bold hand, Zack had written down what he’d not had the courage to say to her face.

The only thing that penetrated her mind was that Zack had left her and he was not coming back.
Seeing the locket, she picked it up, the silver chain sliding through her fingers.MoreLess
