Of Joy and Sorrow

Marie's heart was broken. Night after night, she sat in the dark pondering how she could go on. She decided to live, in the dark. Never to allow the thought of him into her mind again. To do this she had to move, far away where Joe could not find her. She would forget him and if he got angry again, he would never know where to find her and his anger would search in vain before it would finally dissipate into the ether. Marie was afraid. A wave of thought and emotion had come through Joe's door and caused great damage to her sensitive psyche.

She ran away from him and he would lose her. But, as the Collective warned Joe, the husband shall follow. He will find her. She ran, straight into his trap, away from Joe, where he could not protect her.

Was this her grief and sorrow or was it the Collective's plan all along?  It was her destiny. 'You may not stop this,' they said.

Thinking she had lost first a husband, a marriage, and then a love, broke her.
