She appeared like an apparition

Continuing my play with Wonhundred Word Wednesdays I present:

================

I told her it was him or me. 

She hesitated, silent. Speechless.

“You have nothing to say?” said I.

“Not to you.”

“I’ll drive you to him.”

She nodded.

And in she went. Walking up the sidewalk, firm and upright. To the door, into his house.

I sat and stared.

Nothing to do. 

Unable to go.

Defeated.

Nowhere to go.

Swings open the door and out she marches, an apparition. Smiling to see me there, waiting for her. Certain and secure.

"You,” she said. "True, you waited."
