Today, my state's governor issued a shelter-in-place order, and I know it's finally here.
The beginning of the end.

I've survived a lot.
Butterfly kisses transforming into busted lips.
Terms of endearment twisting into blatant insults.
Lipstick staining my husband's collar in shades I don't own.

The love I once vowed to protect and nurture has morphed into something I don't recognize, and from the frigid corners of my husband's shadow, I've watched our marriage sour and wither  away like a neglected houseplant. 

Now, thanks to an invisible threat no one in this country is prepared to beat, it's just the two of us.

Quarantined.
Together.
For 30 days.

A global pandemic doesn't scare me.
He'll kill me long before a novel virus get the chance.
