Placing the bottled water down on the wooden deck beneath his feet, Marcus took a deep breath and stared out at the bay. Sailboats and motorboats bobbed in the gentle sway where they were moored in the marina. The night was quiet, the lonely silence occasionally interrupted by the sound of a buoy dinging in the distance. Solitary patches of orange light emanating from the dock lighting cast a somber glow on the scene. He tipped his head back into the gentle breeze that ruffled his hair.
Regret and a myriad of memories burned through his brain, all of them involving her.
Writing songs together.
Her laughter the day they had visited Granville Market.
Her smile when the water buffalo had eaten from her hand at the farm.
The feel of her warm hands skimming over his naked flesh. Coming apart together in each other’s arms.
The contentment he felt in her presence.
They had moved too fast.
Wrong.
He had moved too fast.
Too fast to have fully appreciated the value of the woman he’d had and now lost.
His hands gripped the cold steel rail in front of him. He stared out into the dark night. Heaviness descended over his thoughts like a wall cloud as he contemplated a future without her.
