Vignettes - 1. Crisis
It was worse for Ian. He was new at relationships. Ian believed a disagreement predicted trouble ahead. This had been an actual argument!
He knew it was finished ...over! He had raised his voice to Miles! Why had he slapped the table? Why had he walked out to find himself here at the corner store buying a pack of cigarettes? He gave up smokes two years ago for gosh sakes! His New Life Resolution as he graduated college.
I’d better start looking for a place to live, he sadly concluded, exhaling after his first deep drag. Sitting here in the park gave him some space and time to consider his future; a future without Miles.
“There you are! Smoking? Ian? Why are you smoking?” Miles approached the bench carrying a small bag. He sat down, gracing Ian with a tender kiss. “Here, open the bag.” Ian removed a can from the bag.
Miles smiled and quietly said, “It’s OK sweetie, I can drink decaf too.”
