It was a simple question with a simple answer, just not what you wanted to hear

Just a question
Will you stay?
Spoken simply
Nothing more

Yet

Somewhere within her
Something changed
Some long ago emotion
Some how escaped

So

She took a deep breath
Feeling the rush
And through slightly parted lips
Replied softly
No.
