The palm hearts.

Eleven tiny hearts gathered to discuss about how to line up on the heart line of a palm.

And who would believe it,  there  were arguments! There were frowns and there were sighs and all sorts of coloured disagreements.

The smallest heart, well known for being claustrophobic wanted to be the one nearest to the index finger. So they let her go first and lead the way.

The following three hearts were triplets. Born with non existent time difference, they were renowned in the finger world for always sticking together. So they went next.

The fifth heart was spoilt from birth and always had things done her own way. She assumed the fifth place was hers because the triplets were her dearest friends.

The sixth heart was mean, selfish and cold. Getting a place in the middle of the heart line meant she'd shiver less than the others when destiny's winds blew over.

The seventh and eighth hearts had met each other on  a different palm a few years earlier. They'd gotten along straight away and were ever so merry. They just knew how to blend in with the crowds.

The ninth heart was the quieter one. Although she didn't want to be placed near the end of the line, she tolerated her anger through keeping quiet and counting backwards from ten to one.

The last two hearts were a couple. Whatever happened, in whichever palm they travelled through time, they always wanted to be at the end of the heart line. It is afterall, the most 'grande' place if you want some privacy or if you wish to leave all that heart line nonsense behind.   
They say the heart line on your right palm can say many things about you. What kiind of person you are when it comes to relationships.

But the eleven tiny hearts knew well. That throughout their long lasting career, they never showed the truth on any palm. They all compromised. For a job and some shelter.
