The Abandoned Wife

Getting soaked was not what Roxanne had anticipated, but even with her disheveled appearance and her hair hanging limply behind her ears, she still looked remarkably beautiful.

Roxanne was caught off guard by the wave, and it took her a few seconds to regain her composure. By the time she did, the shells she had gathered in her palm had been swept away by the water. She couldn't even locate the shell she had originally spotted and wanted to pick up.

Roxanne wiped the seawater from her face and shook her head, letting out a remorseful sigh. "I'm okay, but my shells have been washed away."
