We drove out to Red Rock Canyon that day. I’ll never forget it. Life had not been good for us for awhile. We both loved that canyon, the beautiful scenery, the peace.
Peter wanted to walk and take some photos. I walked with him for a bit but then veered off on my own. I took some photos of my own, including one of Peter sitting on the rocks resting and thinking.
He got up, walked back to me and said, “Carolyn, you’re my girl. You’ve always been. Can’t we work this out? What can I do?”
“You can be the Peter I used to know. Before the affair. You decided to stay, but you aren’t really here.”
Peter said, “I can’t help it, Carolyn. It changed me. She changed me.”
“Go back to her. You’re not my Peter anymore.”

So sad! Great story! Carolyn knew that he wasn’t hers anymore. That is such a sad ending! 😥

A sad but suitable end to a meaningless relationship. Well written, Rose.
