the rabbits and the end of their marriage

The husband and wife would soon be reunited, although they might not recognize each other at first. Their children were grown and nowhere to be found. They might even have childred of their own, but no one would really know this. The moment I saw her, I knew that she had changed, while he stayed the same, except older. He wore the old clothes he always wore which were too dirty to be washed by now. She, on the other hand, had stars on her eyes that somehow got implanted there. Hollywood must have done that too her. He thought that as soon as he saw her he would remember how beautiful she was. He was much more nervous than she was about them reuniting, because he had grown lonely while she got all the attention she wanted. So he traveled across the land, his stomach tied in knots the entire time. The moment they met, they did not recognize each other. It must have been too late. He still had that same warm look he always had in his eyes , but the stars on hers got in the way. She no longer looked beautiful to him, at least not in the same way. It did not matter to her whose eyes were looking at her and whether they were warm or not. So he decided to travel back across the land, and she still got all the attention she wanted. They continued to live their lives as they were before this encounter, never to meet again. He knew better than that by now, although he was a bit disappointed that he could not recognize her. She didn't think about it at all. Hollywood must have done that to her and this made him feel glad that he left.
