We were challenged to write three complete but connecting stories using SIX, EIGHTEEN and TWENTY-FIVE words respectively. So here goes - I suggest you take a breath between each story to get the full effect!
NOW
At his
funeral Rani didn’t weep.
TEN YEARS EARLIER
‘You must
not shame the family.’
‘But he
beats me.’
‘If you
leave him I will kill you.’
......................................................
TEN YEARS BEFORE THAT
‘You will
marry him.’
‘But he
is old.’
‘He is
rich – your children will want for nothing.’
‘If I
refuse?’
‘Your
father will beat you.’
...........................................................
That's all folks!! - please don't go without leaving a comment.
