Puzzling Relationship of Parts

A Story by H.L. Pauff

As the sun shone brightly overhead, I felt the water pour out of me and soak into the grass. My scarf lay on her naked body, her twiggy hands intertwined with mine and my carrot was deep inside her. It was a puzzling relationship of parts and I didn’t know where I ended and she began.


It took us weeks trudging through the three feet of snow to finally embrace. Moving only inches per day, the journey was painfully long, but well worth the wait. She looked beautiful in her pink hat surrounded by white and I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my days with her.


As the weather got warmer, her body began to lose weight. I wished there was something I could do for her, but I began to feel the sting of the heat myself. Eventually her smile began to fade as well and it broke my heart. I was watching the love of my life fade away and I was helpless to stop it. I held onto her tightly and hoped that I would melt first so I wouldn’t have to watch her go.
