Six Sentence Sunday 6/10 #sixsunday

Here are six more from a story I wrote as part of the StoryADay Challenge.  It’s threatening to be a mini novella, because Mira is crazy and Daniel is having a hard time letting her go.

“Anyone would be glad to have you to love.”

Mira’s eyes flew open and she stared up at Daniel, asking, “What did you say?”

He paused, not sure if he should say it, but decided to anyway, and told her, “I said I love you.”

He held his breath, waiting to see what she’d do: slap him, storm out of the room, jump his bones? Instead she kissed his cheek, snuggled down under the covers, and for all appearances fell asleep.

The next morning she was gone when he woke, and when he arrived at school, mentally reviewing his presentation notes, everything flew out of his head when he saw Mira in the teacher’s lounge, her arms around the neck of Juan, the Spanish exchange teacher.
