Drabble: Doors

Usually she closes the door behind her when she enters her room. To her, a closed door represents safety. A barrier between her and the world. She can walk around without her gloves. She can be Marie and leave the ghost of Rogue in the hallway, along with the fear for herself.

Sometimes she makes an exception. Sometimes she leaves the door open, because a special someone might walk by. If he stops and leans against the doorway to have a chat, she doesn’t feel her restraining gloves anymore.

The woodwork always frames him like a piece of living art.
