Their faces, so full of rapt attention, creased into confused shock as I closed the book.

"Yeah, what the hell?"
"Language!
But anyway, it's a realistic ending. You don't always get the happy ending, especially if don't chase it and take too long to realise it's there. So grab them when you can."
They glanced at each other and sighed.
"I guess" they muttered, as I put the unfinished book away.
Well it's a better ending than the crap the author wrote!
