Anton had the same job in the new city he’d had in the Old. Only in this city he lived in a cheap furnished studio, not his own house. In this city he had no family. He had no family. In this city all he had were a few co-workers.
He shared nothing about himself with them, rarely attending office functions, leaving early. Occasionally he’d see his co-workers at lunch, or a bar after work. He’d greet them, exchange words, but never let them close.
He filled his days following sports, reading, playing games on line, going to a movie now and then, maybe a cultural presentation.
He lived as if he’d died at the divorce.
He kept telling himself to try to make a new life, but he didn’t really want one. He wanted his old life back.
His old life, before Poison Candy.
Memories often hold us back, will this character oevercome?
Poison Candy is not done with her marriage wrecking
