Walking Slowly
Walking slowly along the ledge, a feeling of despair was heavily upon him. She had gone, he knew not where. Just that she was gone. Summer was coming early this year, not much left of spring.
“'For how can I be sure I shall see again? The world on the first of May would come' * and go again, much like the last. I'm not a loner, got to have some company along life's way. Everything is a blur unless I have company. And some help, help explaining what I'm seeing.”
Out of seemingly nowhere a figure comes his way. “She's carrying a big sign, it says 'COMPANY WANTED, I am alone.'
My prayers might be answered, Ma'am, may I be the one you were looking for?”
“My name is Leslie, what is yours?”
“I go by Eddy.”
“That will do.”
NOTE: * per prompt, exact wording. See below.
