Saturday Centus #44 Wedding Anniversary

I discovered this meme at 'The Caterpillar Uprising'and thought it looked fun. Click here to read other responses.


Jenny Matlock gives a prompt at Saturday Centus  and the challenge is to write up to 100 words, not including the prompt.  This week's prompt is 'Everything depended upon this single card . . .'

It was their wedding anniversary. She sifted through the mail, recalling her giddy teenage years when everything had seemed possible.

She had met Tim - fallen head over heels in love. A fairy-tale romance, everyone said, a match made in heaven, love ever after. The following years brought happiness, a few tribulations - nothing they couldn’t deal with together.

Together!

Tim had gone away for a few days, ‘to think things over’. He would let her know as soon as he had decided. He had sent a card – but what did it say?

Everything depended upon this single card . . .
