December Drabble Challenge: The best gift
Write a drabble (a story of exactly 100 words) with the theme of "The Best Gift." Was it something you received? Something you gave? A state of being? Use your imagination, spin a flash fiction yarn. Please stick with prose using standard punctuation, spelling, and grammar. Winner gets a whopping TWO DOLLARS to spend on a GIFT OF THEIR CHOICE! I'll pick a winner sometime in early January.
Cupid Gave Me A Gift
When Cupid shot his arrow into my heart, he forgot to sharpen it first. Not even the gods could dent my stone heart, and he knew it. But Cupid tried anyway. Every suitor I met with filled me with hate. Every kind person on the street. All of it was hate, and I was sick of it. I would yell at the gods, why? Why did you curse me?
But then I met him. And for the first time in my life, I realized the gift I was given. So much hate gave me the power to see true love.
