A Spark in the Dark

Prompted Pentina (50 word story)

I felt drained. Between work and my disastrous love life, I had little energy at the end of the day. And then Mia called.

“Come dancing with me!”

“I don’t know…”

Mia wouldn’t take no for an answer. We ended up at Shades. Goth metal. The music’s darkness rejuvenated me.
