Portfolio Piece 2nd Quarter: Narritive

The Encounter

Hearts pound
Blood boils inside twisted veins
Giving each that
Heavy-breathing
Unruly kind of feeling

Every time their eyes meet
A million words exchange
With not a single syllable spoken

In both their minds
It seems impossible
So they try and play pretend

She walks in the room like always
The papers he hands her
Leaves a magnetic pull in her core
And she doesn't care
About age or commitment
Or even hierarchy
But it has to be
A problem for him

Time passes
The pressure builds
Until one day
When she's about to
Be gone for good
She brings up the subject
While in a bold mood

They both freeze

He starts to walk away
She feels like an idiot

He doesn't leave
But closes the door

She is stunned
In confusion
And possibility
The lock slides in

One loud click
And tension becomes
Released in
A fury of action

They both leave the office
Like the day had been nothing special
