charloft 100 drabbles - 57. Couple in a Palm Tree

Based on this picture

K’tanya browsed through a quaint little shop on some tropical island who’s name she couldn’t quite remember. It was simply a way to pass an afternoon.

As she passed a stand filled with postcards, one of them caught her eye and she paused to pick it up. It was a romantic picture of two people who were obviously very much in love. K’tanya looked at it for a moment, then walked over to the old man running the shop and paid for the card.

As soon as she was outside, she ripped it into pieces and promptly threw them away.
