To Hang The Moon
Written for the dVerse Prosery Prompt by Amy Woolard:
βWhat does it matter that the stars we see are already deadβ

βWhat does it matter that the stars we see are already dead? What does that even mean, Margie?β
βOh, Nell. If I have to explain it to you, it loses its gravitas, its pathos, doesnβt it?β
βGravitas? Pathos? Iβm sorry .β¦ when were you named chief cook, bottlewasher and poet laureate?β
Margie gave her friend a dismissive eye roll before turning her back, busying herself with little scraps of paper on her desk.
There was a time the two were like sisters, cherishing a bond they never found with anyone else. Now they barely recognized each other; their conversations were stilted to the point of being painful.
And it all came down to Nicole, a newcomer in their exclusive inner circle …. a renaissance woman and Margie thought she hung the moon.
βI miss us, Margieβ
Intense silence. Spoken words were never as wounding.
