Writing Prompt #1:
A girl. An abandoned house. A memory.
In no less than 100 words, take those three prompts and create a short story. There are no rules.
We passed through hallways adorned with family memories. They tell the story of the three that lived here once. In them a young girl, dressed modestly, always to the left, half smiles. A man, always center, seems either tired or off balance. His arm around his wife, with her child's smile. At the end of the hall is what we came for, a video on a cellphone.
"This was your room?"
She nods.
"Why choose me to help?"
She points to my arms before fading away again.
I play the video to hear "You made me do this honey. Honey?..."
