She was waiting to be windfall, rotting upon the caked earth or collected and given away as bruised fruit. I stood beneath the tree and caught her delicately, knowing ripe fruit is easily damaged. I could have loved her, the opportunity�s arose and were left to fall like petals at her feet. Her parting footsteps released a perfume that lingered for years.

Confused by: "the opportunity�s arose" do you mean the 'opportunity' owns 'arose' OR "opportunities arose"? In other words, is 'arose' a noun or a verb?
