Never Let You Go (a Modern Fairytale) - Plot & Excerpts
Maya stopped by before work and, opening the licorice Sabrina had thoughtfully left for her, smiled at Griselda from the foot of her bed. Maya gave Holden her apartment keys and address, and urged him to get away for a little while and go take a shower. He stared at Griselda with hesitation, but she encouraged him to go. After he promised to return in an hour and spend the rest of the day with her, she’d watched him leave, knowing she’d never get used to it. It would never get any easier to watch him walk away. Maya’s eyes tracked his departure before shuttling back to Griselda’s face, and then she sat down in Holden’s vacated seat. “Zelda, that man is done and gone for you.” “And I’m done and gone for him,” sighed Griselda as she finished off the last of her eggs. “Any chance you can get him to stick around?” Undoubtedly she could.
