Description
Today, my state's governor issued a shelter-in-place order, and I know it's finally here. The beginning of the end. I've survived a lot. Butterfly kisses transforming into busted lips. Terms of endearment twisting into blatant insults. Lipstick staining my husband's collar in shades I don't own. The love I once vowed to protect and nurture has morphed into something I don't recognize, and from the frigid corners of my husband's shadow, I've watched our marriage sour and wither away like a neglected houseplant. Now, thanks to an invisible threat no one in this country is prepared to beat, it's just the two of us. Quarantined. Together. For 30 days. A global pandemic doesn't scare me. He'll kill me long before a novel virus get the chance. ***WARNING: This story contains subject matter not suitable for readers under 18.
