100 Words: Which Way?

At every place on the road that demanded a decision they pulled in different ways.  At every fork they argued and bickered about the route back home. 

The roots of it that day had been laid at breakfast, but went back further to an act some weeks before.  Now, still angry, they had little proxy fights whenever they spoke.

Until finally they went separate ways, unable to bear each other’s company; for the time being at least.

In time they would have to find a way together or else always move separately.  For now they would have days like this.
