She was an #organised woman. Her tasks were prioritised and meticulously delegated to the hours of every week for months in advance. A disciplined woman with a detailed plan. A creature of order, never once suspecting that her life would end in some random accident.

The king was at a loss. The royal coffers were empty, and taxes were unpaid. Inevitably, war was his recourse. An #armada of dark ships bearing grim-faced warriors to the coast of the land of plenty. Desperate men intent on pillage and slaughter. Relentless. Remorseless.

They met on the first day of #kindergarten. Two girls. A shy glance. A smile. A giggle was all it took to spark a friendship that endured until life splintered into a myriad of adult choices. One bit deep into the marrow while the other married a possessive man. The end.

The joy of quarantine passed quickly. At first, he relished the time off work. Sleeping late and binging Netflix. Later, reality set in. The world was a different place in 2020 and he was alone, left to watch the vacuum #robot; up and down, cleaning the carpet on repeat.

@JohnTannhauser Indeed. Sadder even when one sees kids aspiring to be like them. Prisoners of public opinion...a fate fit for a nemesis only. Lol

Some people envied her life. It seemed glamorous. A reality tv star, pursued by the paparazzi. Plumped and tucked. She was the perfect #mannequin for the latest trends. Her beauty - a mere commodity - moulded to appeal to those upon whom her fortune depended.

@JohnTannhauser I agree completely.

I am not sure this #CoronaVirusPanic thing is real. Everything is closed and people are panic buying but I counted 36 (very) old folk strolling around town on Sunday morning as if nothing was going on. No reason to be out there either. Here, supermarkets aren't open on Sundays.

Anxiety was the new #normal in a world gone crazy. War, mass migration, youth unemployment, fascism on the rise, a pandemic sending markets into freefall. National lockdowns forcing shops to close. #Insurmountable odds. A new global recession seemed inevitable.

They loved each other completely; diving deep into the #unfathomable depths of each other's complexities. No judgment. No recriminations. No petty jealousy for old lovers from past lives. Older. Wiser. In the end, they both knew that acceptance was the key to happiness.
