Angie found the note in her backpack. Her name was written on the envelope in his handwriting.
“When had he written it?” she wondered. Though it didn’t matter. Angie was expecting it.
Ange,
I think we’ve tried. We really have. But this is just not working for me. And I don’t think it’s working for you either. I think it’s best if we just end it. I’ll be moved out by the time you get home from work.
Jess
Angie shrugged as she folded the letter. She didn’t feel sad. She didn’t feel anything, except relief and a tinge of excitement knowing that she would no longer have to share her apartment with anyone. With him.
Angie never agreed with Jess on anything. But this one last time he was right. They didn’t work.

Nice fiction, every time I read something from you, I think it’s true, at the end of it I realize it’s a fiction. How strange? 🙂

I’ve had the same experience with the challenges. I tend to think I’m not good at short stories, then a prompt inspires me, and away I go. Such fun!

Sometimes things aren’t right and a relationship between two people doesn’t work. Great job at portraying this.

Yes, this is very true. It’s fortunate they both agreed. That doesn’t always happen.
