Turn A Blind Eye (Fifty Word Story)

Turn a blind eye

---

It was 3 AM. For yet another night he had come home late.

- Why aren't you sleeping, princess?

- You woke me up.

- Then let me kiss you to sleep to atone for my mistake.

He smelled of women's perfume.

It wasn't hers.

She closed her eyes and kissed him back.

The piece was my new entry for this week's Fifty Word Story Contest held by @gonzo and @sarah-xx on Whaleshares.

The new prompt is the word "Blindness".

I believe you managed to find the symbolism here. I'm not going to say more, as I want to listen to your views on the piece.

Are you writing anything this week?

The new contest has just been launched and we are curious to see what you can think of! So don't delay, if you feel like being creative, make an account and join in the fun!

See you all tomorrow!

Thank you so much for your time!

Until my next post,
Steem on and keep smiling, people!
