I walk home from the train station, with a concoction of his cologne and cigarette smoke coated breath surrounding me. Even the strong floral scent of Pleasures Intense doesn’t drown it, or the haunting feeling of satisfaction and shame. I can feel his rugged hands grasping my waist, and his raspy breath around me. The black cashmere scarf sticks to my sweaty neck. I move my hands through my tangled hair and enter the house. I hope Jacques doesn’t notice my missing hair tie.

Going Home
I walk home from the train station, with a concoction of his cologne and cigarette smoke coated breath surrounding me. Even the strong floral scent of Pleasures Intense doesn’t drown it, or the haunting feeling of satisfaction and shame. I can feel his rugged hands grasping my waist, and his raspy breath around me. The black cashmere scarf sticks to my sweaty neck. I move my hands through my tangled hair and enter the house. I hope Jacques doesn’t notice my missing hair tie.
