🌊MOMENT OF CLARITY🌊 This piece for Writers Write Snippets is for my Regency Era romance novel. Enjoy! 😊 Theme - Who Shall I Be Day Georgiana stood beside a rocky shore. Waves bashed against the gloomy cliffs. Sea mist sprayed against her lips as she breathed in the salty air. The wind tousled her hair as the setting sun on the horizon beckoned her like a beacon to a new future. She thought about her future and what people expected her to do with her life. Marry well, have children, create a legacy. Her nose wrinkled as she recalled the argument she had with her mother. With her father gone, responsibilities fell upon her shoulders. She hated when people spoke of marrying well. The thought made her want to cringe, and now she had to consider it or lose everything. Marriage always reminded her of a ring of knotted twigs, tightening every year around a woman’s neck until she could not breathe or speak. She shut her eyes and listened to the sea. Peaceful and soothing, she could stand here forever and forget everything. When she opened her eyes, she noticed Henley standing on the far side of the beach. He stared out at the sea, his broad shoulders tense. She wondered what went on in his mind. As if pulled by a magnetic force, she made her way towards him. “Good evening, Mr. Sutton,” Georgiana smiled, hoping she had not disturbed him. Henley turned to her, sadness in his eyes. A small smile appeared on his lips. “Miss. Whitehouse.” He bowed his head. “What brings you here?” “Clarity,” Georgiana hesitated, then continued, “I suppose I needed time to myself to think.” Henley nodded, understanding, and said, “The sea puts things into perspective.” Georgiana looked at the ocean with a smile. He reached out and took hold of her hand, intertwining his fingers with hers. She didn’t know what came over her, but she squeezed his hand as though he were her lifeline. Georgiana was certain of one thing despite not knowing the future. She felt content with Henley by her side. 🌊🌊🌊 #regencyera #romancenovel #momentofclarity #newbeginnings #newperspective #lovestories #whoshallibeday #writerswritesnippets (at Naperville, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoyhDhmO9lH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
