Two Sentence Challenge
Any subject, any style, as many commas as you want, just keep it at two (grammatically liberal) sentences.

I was hoping my heartfelt apology, cooking your favorite dinner and letting you have ultimate control of the t.v. remote for the rest of the month would make amends.

August 2024 Drabble Challenge: First Day of School
Tell me a story in exactly 100 words using the prompt, "First Day of School." Take it in any direction you want, you don't have to use the exact phrase or keywords or anything, but do draw us in with a return to school as your theme. Please use standard punctuation, grammar, and spelling to spin a prose tale for a chance to score a whopper of a prize: TWO WHOLE DOLLARS! I'll pick the winner in early September, no need to tag me with your entry.

Lily clutched her backpack, heart racing as she approached the towering school building. New faces surrounded her, a sea of strangers. She took a deep breath, remembering Mom's encouraging words.

The bell rang, startling her. Lily followed the crowd inside, searching for her classroom. A kind-faced teacher greeted her at the door, easing her nerves slightly.

As she settled into her desk, a girl with curly hair smiled at her. "I'm Emma," she whispered. "Want to be friends?"

Lily nodded, tension melting away. Maybe this wouldn't be so bad after all. She opened her notebook, ready for a new adventure.
