Summary: This is simply a bit of Dribble. A look at what could have happen
 

 

Aged glass sang as it shattered against the floor. A waterfall cascaded onto
the hard wood floor. Where Champagne fizzled as it seeped into the cracks
between the planks, after flowing. 

 

He glared at her. Moved to the closet without a word and pulled out a
suitcase. Without looking back to the bed he threw it towards the foot.
Giving no care a whom it might hit. After the closet door slammed shut he
moved towards the dresser, stepping to the side as she tried to come between
him and the antique.  His eyes met hers a moment, then shifted to the
opposite side of the bed. Shaking his head he moved again to retrieve his
desired belongings. 

 

"Leonard," her voice was soft, "talk to me."

 

He looked up, opened his mouth to speak and sharply closed it. No, there was
nothing to say. More than enough had been said without the use of words.  He
continued his task. 

 

Overcome with the sense of being rushed to complete his duty, he hurried his
pace. Though in reality he had no need to rush, he was home.  Again he
looked to the bed, carefully looking at the mess he saw. Then he let his
eyes shift up, to a picture of his family. 

 

The joy he saw served its purpose for the moment. This woman, his wife, gave
him a beautiful daughter, now three, and a son that was not meant to be.
When the lad died following, his troubled birth it tore them both apart.
Common pain was all that held them together at the time. Now there was no
looking back on that. 

 

Even now he saw the fruit of love ripening, not his love though. His wife
was sowing the fruit of another's labor. A lasting tribute to her disloyalty
to all he worked hard to give her. The long months spent in training across
the vastness of the planet.

 

Tears streamed down a dirty face, as a heart shattered like fragments of a
mirror. All the hopes and dreams he carried in his heart during his tiring
shifts at the hospital, gone in a single moment. With that instant he was
reminded who he was. The man his wife had made him as of late. 

            

He thought a moment, laying down a neatly pressed shirt not worn in almost a
year. Then he casually left the room, though there was no cause for concern.
He for one was done playing her games. 

 

The young wife looked at the far end of the bed and then up to the clouds
out the window. As she faced the window and gripped her hands against the
ledge, she yelled as he one last glance back at her, "I never loved you, you
coward!" She returned to the bed she now shared with her future.
