Too Splendid
I am participating in Anonymum’s rolling post. The idea is that each blogger involved gets to add 6 lines to an ongoing story before passing it on to another blogger on the list. How awesome is that for an idea?
These are the participants:
Javaqueen
Cris
Evyl
Anja
Lightening
Bettina
Hilary
Jayne
Red
Gemisht
Annie
And Anonymum of course. Anonymum has made a start and tagged me to go next. Eeek!!! 
Just so you know which bit is mine, I’ll colour it pink!!!!
Who knows where this story will go or how it will end. I recommend you follow it around because it’s sure going to be interesting to see.
Too Splendid
The sun was orange as it set against the ocean.
As Natalie walked along the beach, she felt the sting of tears as they sprung to her eyes. How could he do this to her? What would she do now?
She had invested 12 years of her life into their marriage, thinking they were happy, only to have him say he was leaving. Her question of why had been left unanswered. There was no explanation or reasons. He had merely looked at her sadly and walked out the door without so much as a backward glance………….
The sand felt cool against her hot face as her legs buckled and she surrendered her weary body to the comfort of the course sand. She curled up into a foetal position, her mind willing her body to simply evaporate. The darkness enveloping her was barely recognisable against the darkness that enveloped her heart. A darkness that had been slowly creeping in over the past decade. Somewhere in the distance, a baby cried…. a cry that tortured her heart with memories of a dim and distant past……
I am supposed to tag somebody that I don’t know very well to do the next instalment so I’m going to tag Javaqueen .
If you’d like to read the results of Anonymum’s first rolling post, you can find it here.
Thanks for allowing me to participate Anonymum and I look forward to following this story to it’s conclusion.
