Status: Short Story remake of "The Girl with the Green Ribbon".

Green Ribbon, Green Ribbon

on

We were devastated when we found out that we couldn't have children. Lulu cried for days and I felt her sorrow.

We made up for that empty place in our hearts by travelling the world. We visited India, China, Japan, South Africa and Morocco, France, Italy, Germany, England, Ireland, Brazil, and a load of others.

But everywhere we went in this black and white world, her green ribbon stood out and was the object of wonder.

After our many travels, we finally came home and settled down. She became a school teacher and I owned a grocery store.

Eventually we grew old together.
