Three Women in Their Golden Years Set Off on a Journey to Fulfill Their Wildest Dreams – Story of the Day

The funeral was quiet. Just a few people stood by, exchanging whispers. I stood apart, clutching my husband’s old hat. It was all I had left of him, of us. The murmurs of condolences drifted past me, barely registering.

“You should come inside,” someone whispered, but I didn’t move.

My mind replayed all the plans we’d postponed. Our last trip to the ocean, the dreams we shelved for later. Later he was gone.

My voice caught in my throat as I spotted a familiar figure at the edge of the group. She looked unsure, holding her handbag tightly, like a shield. Before I could gather myself, another familiar face appeared.

“Lorna?” I whispered, almost laughing in disbelief.

She stood confidently, her bright scarf and glasses a splash of life against the somber crowd. It was like seeing a ghost of my youth, but her eyes held the weight of years gone by.
