She remembered being happy.

Playing dolls, hosting tea parties for her teddy bears.

Free as a bird, running around the neighbourhood with her friends.

Giggling in bathrooms, making eyes at boys.

Kissing in the backseat until she was breathless, sneaking in late with a smile on her face.

She remembered being happy. Happy, joyful, blissed out, gleeful, giddy, merry.

But as she sat in a darkened room at 2 am with a glass of wine, waiting for her husband to come home, Joyce knew she hadn’t been happy in a very long time.

And she wanted to be happy again.

Thanks. I was trying to live up to the fact that you friended me for drabbles, so I had to write something this week. It was a hard prompt, eh?
