Short Story Idea

by TheBloomingIdiot

Here’s an idea I came up with circa 1997-1998 that never went anywhere . . .

A short story about a couple who break up but continue to live together for two or three weeks because the lease is nearly up and neither of them can afford to break it or pay the other person’s half of the rent.
First sentence: “Love had ended early.”
Possible titles: “Apartment,” “Together,” or “Alone Together”
