For the ZAPFIC50 Monday challenge this week, the prompt "urge" reminded me of situations where individuals can do their best to convince others of their intent. But to no avail. Professions of love or admiration is subject to rejection by the intended party. What's the next move? Does one persist or abandon the effort is not urged to continue?
I share a flash fiction story told in exactly 50 words for the prompt. The challenge was created by @felt-buzz.
My story is below:

The months leading up to Gavin's departure were filled with daily notes of loyalty.
At the airport, he refused to accept Valerie's note professing she'd wait until his volunteer service abroad ended.
Dismissive signals she received weren't ones she expected.
But it didn't stop her fervent embrace and lingering kiss.

Para el desafío del lunes de ZAPFIC50 de esta semana, el tema «impulso» me recordó situaciones en las que las personas pueden hacer todo lo posible por convencer a los demás de sus intenciones. Pero es en vano. Las profesiones de amor o admiración están sujetas al rechazo de la parte pretendida. ¿Cuál es el siguiente paso? ¿Persiste uno o abandona el empeño no le urge continuar?
Comparto una historia de ficción flash contada en exactamente 50 palabras para el prompt. El reto fue creado por @felt-buzz.
A continuación mi historia.

Las señales mixtas no detendrán el amor eterno
Los meses previos a la partida de Gavin estuvieron llenos de notas diarias de lealtad.
En el aeropuerto, se negó a aceptar la nota de Valerie en la que le decía que esperaría a que terminara su servicio voluntario en el extranjero.
Las señales de desprecio que recibió no eran las que ella esperaba.
Pero eso no impidió su ferviente abrazo y su prolongado beso.
