The sun was high and bright before they descended down to sit in the popular spot for a morning talk.

There had been a lot of goings on in the last few days. The subject was seen emerging from the house, in tears and carrying a few essentials. There had been shouting and loud exchange heard across the neighbourhood, everyone expecting more to spill beyond the confines of the restricted view. And then all went quiet, waiting for the new drama to unfold the next day.

That would keep the discussion nice and long for this morning, of course not everyone would like to participate in this gossip. It was a heartbreak, a sad demise to a beautiful beginning, an ending, however traumatic, rather cruel and final. They had to have a say, be heard, opinions thrown, sides taken and a final conclusion before they part ways.

Come next day it would be another place, another story to unfold, another one to scrutinize, pass judgement, ridicule, condemn, criticise and slang. Don’t mind the victim, unknown factors that force confrontations, in the end no one notices it pass. It was entertainment for the day and a reason for morning talk.
