Yesterdays answer: Seven
Today I will be sharing one of my favorites
Here we go:
I boarded that magnificent ship certain my future was locked into place. She was supposed to be the final piece of the puzzle as she was elegant, compliant, and best of all controllable…..or so I thought. But the farther we sailed, the more she slipped out of my grasp, drawn to some carefree wanderer who didn’t belong anywhere near our world. I tried gifts, charm, even forceful reminders of the life waiting for her, but she kept drifting toward him like I was the cage and he was the escape.
Then disaster struck—metal screaming, lights failing, the whole world tilting under our feet. Even in the chaos, she ran to him, not to the man who could offer her everything. I bribed, lied, pushed through crowds just to keep control for a few more minutes. But in the end, she survived without me, and he didn’t(even though legend has it that door easily could have held two people). When she met my eyes afterward, she wasn’t afraid; she was free. And that freedom cut deeper than the cold ever could.
Luckily, l found a drawing of her before I left that ship….
