She liked him a lot but he never made a first move. She suspected he liked her too. One day she pulled her courage, called him and said she had two tickets to Hamilton. He was excited as the tickets were impossible to get.
When he came to the theater, she told him she didn’t have those tickets.
“Should I walk you somewhere or you’d be fine on your own?” He asked.
“I’ll just stay here,” she replied.
She of course had the tickets.

FPS: The Last Flame Challenge Winners
Welcome to our first Winners Announcement of the year and to the final challenge in the Fall Poetry Series. The Last Flame invited writers to sit with endings, using fire as a central image to consider what remains when something burns out: ash, warmth, memory, silence, or the faint promise of what comes next. The strongest pieces treated endings as gradual rather than sudden, allowing them to flicker, dim, and linger.

I thought maybe she was seeing if he was interested in the tickets or her. Thought a joke or tease? Not sure though. Mystery😉
Short and sweet! Love it.
This is good - I think she’s breaking her own heart in this one.
