My Words, My World

First drafts – A few pages in the large wilderness of the world of writing

The postcard

The first shock was receiving the postcard, in the day of Whatsapp messages and where even emails were considered old-tech.

Then she looked at the picture: Florence.

Frowning, she turned it over.

Her eyes widened and she put her hand over her mouth.

Him. The holiday, Florence, art, culture. Him.

It was addressed to her with only a signature. His.

So many years had passed. The drive, the argument, the blue, flashing lights. The doctors unwilling to break the news.

The funeral. They had told her there had been a funeral.

She looked at the date.

It was impossible.

The current image has no alternative text. The file name is: the-postcard.jpg
