Romance Stories

I wanted to include this story along with my reposting of The Sun Also Rises. I tend to carry over characters from story-to-story. And I know that it can be confusing when people from prior stories appear in the middle of new ones. Especially if a lot of time has passed as is the case here. This was written over a year after the Sun Also Rises. I wanted to explore the theme of infidelity between people who are essentially made for each other. The title is from a Hemingway short story.

That needs wisdom, which really does go without saying.

Minor Content Warnings (handled tastefully and sensitively): attempted assault (chps 23, 28, 44) and mentions of self-harm.

It's the classic story. He was a divorced college professor... cynical, detached, and supercilious.

And then the universe did everything it could to keep them apart. But sometimes even fate can’t prevent the inevitable.
