Author's Note:

This was kind of a writing exercise. First creating a scene with as little as possible, being able to imagine a wide rainbow of things that could have happened, and then filling in more and more details and information with every further scene.

I hope you enjoy, I'd love to hear from you, and thank you to my lovely test-readers for always being so supportive :)

Developing Distance

Scene 1

.

My throat burns from crying, my cheeks dampened from the tears.

I lie on my bed, staring through the dark light of my room up to the ceiling.

"Jenny, I don't understand you!"

I can still hear the door slamming shut as Emma rushed out, and I close my eyes as the memory haunts me.

... I don't understand myself.

Another tear makes it's way down my cheek as I lay there, shaking my head.
