MLMM Monday Wordle #443 – mindlovemisery

Our words this week are: call, callous, fear, forward, list, missed, single, story, sorrow, tears, tell, time

Here is what I came up with.

The call came late at night, breaking the silence of the room. Her hands trembled as she answered, fearing what she already knew in her heart. On the other end, a callous voice delivered the news—brief, factual, almost indifferent.

She sat there for a long time, unable to move forward, her mind replaying a list of moments she would never get back. Each memory was sharp, piercing: the laughter they shared, the arguments that now seemed so small, the single promise he had made that morning—to come home.

She had missed the chance to tell him so many things. Now, all that remained was sorrow. Tears welled and fell, silently marking the passing of time, as though the clock itself mourned with her.

Later, she would write the story of that night, not to relive it, but to honor him. Because sometimes the only way to survive loss is to tell it, again and again, until the words make the unbearable a little lighter.
