where the challenge was to write something in exactly 51 words.

Myra’s boyfriend was late… again.

And when he arrived at “their bench”, he said only, “Let’s go.”

That was the last straw.
Myra rose furiously.
“You can’t just saunter up, more than an hour late,
and just say ‘Let’s go’. I’m not going anywhere with you.
This was our last date.”
