Z is to Zip It Up

Z is to Zip it Up in Marriage

55 Fiction

Her head snaps up and she stares at her friend, disbelieving

A hundred questions races through her mind.

Is there truth in what her friend just told her?

How can she ask without sounding too desperate for the answers?

Or should she defend and share the reality?

She’d rather smile and zip it up all.

A Word to the Wise

The most serious drawback to the telling-nothing approach is that it made that much more of a mystery of what had happened, and the nature of gossip abhors a vacuum of the unexplained.
