Tug of war
he said this
she said this
then she said this
then he said this
she attacks
he defends
he attacks
she defends
thank you
she said
no more please
and away she walked
after ages
he broke the ice
said it was she
who began the fight
the whole day
she sulked
she denied
she cried
alone
then
god knows why
she called him
and apologized
later
in the day
her phone buzzed
she smiled
she knew for sure
it was his call
This kind of tiff can occur between any two people, married or not married couples, same sex best friends or even say parents and their adult children. Often, one party feels pushed to the corner. Giving up ego is the only solution.
In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Tight Corner.”
