Like the Blue of Your Eyes
His hand hovered over the post box, the brightly coloured card held loosely, poised at the opening.
The picturesque beach with its azure waters and blinding white sand was somehow too perfect—almost surreal despite the reality of those crystalline waves crashing onto the manicured beach only yards away from where he stood.
The salt tang had brought memories crashing back—a different beach and simpler, happier times, and it was that foolish nostalgia that had led to his purchase. With a curse Ethan shredded the card and dropped the fragments in a nearby bin.
There was no going back.

Did he sing "Behind Blue Eyes" in Melbourne ? Could be a reason to wear coloured contacts.

I am very glad you enjoyed the drabble, though. *hugs my poor sad Ethan*

bulliedprompted you into another drabble from this wonderful series.Drabbles are fun (if very challenging) and your drabbles are always a wonderful read. How you pack so much into 100 spare words I'll never figure out.
