Silence In The Lake - #ZapFic1OO

Hello Hive. 😃 I'm back again with another @drabble.club microfiction, that is #zapfic100, inspired by the prompt "in my line of sight" taken from @daily.prompt's post.

If you will like to write microfiction in 100 words, feel free to give this challenge a try.

I rowed the boat faster, pulling and pushing the paddles.

"Tori! Please stop!" Haggai called from the shore, his brows furrowed with fear. He waved his hand but I rowed away from the shore and turned my gaze elsewhere. Still he remain in my line of sight, a lone figure silhouetted against the hues of the setting sun.

Some pains are best embraced alone. I stopped paddling and sat in the middle of the lake in silence.

I'd suffered a loss and wished the twilight would take the pain and bury it. With the sun's rising would come my healing.

Thanks for reading!
