grateful for

the long way round

Grateful

The bridge was shut for resurfacing, so the diversion took him along the coast road, past the caravan park, past the water tower, forty minutes longer than the drive he had done every Friday for six years.

Somewhere near the water tower he understood he was not going to take the job. Not because of anything on the coast road. Only that it was the first Friday in six years with enough time in it to finish a thought.

This one has sold out. The code keeps working.
