The Rumour

Write a short story that centres around the spreading of a rumour.

The Rumor

We were happy

We had eachother

You were funny and kind

I was supporting and brave

We were happy

I was happy


Out of the blue

You had ended it

I thought you were a jerk

You ghosted me


A year has passed

I had just found out why you did this

A stupid rumor


I thought that we meant more

Than other’s words

But apparently I was wrong

I was right to think that you were a jerk


The rumor was

That I was

A player

A flirt

You have got to be kidding.


You couldn’t tell me why to my face

You told my friend

Who told me the rumor


You could think I was a flirt

Or a player

But that means that I can think

Whatever I want about you


Rumors only cause issues

And discourse

So why spread them?

And even worse

Why act on them?
