Devon did not know which was worst, the glare of the twenty-nine candles on her birthday cake or the sparkle of the two and a half carat engagement ring on her baby sister’s finger. However, as she closed her eyes to make a wish and blow out those candles, the real blow was the realization that in another year she was turning the big 3 0 and had yet to even have a genuine relationship.
Turning thirty was one thing, but turning into a young old maid was another…
Therefore, she blew out her candles and made a wish-a pact-with herself. She had one year to today’s date to find a man to fall in love with and help her blow out that extra candle. The challenge would be just that sweet and effortless as the cake she was cutting right now.
If only she knew, love is never that simple…
While promoting her latest single on a late night show, a seemingly innocent game of Twenty Questions with the host leads to much more than Jax could ever have imagined.
Written for the It's Gonna Be May Challenge 2015
Two birds of a feather
Say that they're always gonna stay together
But one's never going to let go of that wire
He says that he will but he's just a liar
Two birds on a wire
One tries to fly away and the other
Watches him close from that wire
He says he wants to as well but he is a liar
- Regina Spektor
