The Story Has Already Arrived

Two lovers are walking down the street, holding hands.  The met, fell in love, and are together.  Their story has already arrived.  Being in love is all that they are concentrating on, so we should step back and leave them alone for now since this is a short story.  How they met and what they shall do with the rest of their lives is for a novel, the one they will write in the years to come if they are given the grace to do so.  For now, we can only wish them well.

~William Hammett
