Mary's In India
by Leni Ba
She is in India when it finally happens.
It was only a matter of seconds.
Lyle’s men were too early, the pretend lasted too long.
Sydney called her immediately. She can only remember the buzz of traffic over his words. How could he still speak when mere syllables were avoiding her?
Later came the official call. The race was over and her brother was crowned winner. She must go back now.
An end means a new beginning, Jarod had said somewhere. As the plane takes off the needed words finally find her.
“I’m sorry.”
But that doesn’t really matter anymore.
