“There’s no hope.”
Sam stared bleakly at Meg as he uttered these words.
“Really? He said that? Wow, talk about a bedside manner.”
“Meg, don’t joke. I can’t. . .lose you. Not now.”
“And you won’t. We’ll show him. You and I.
Together.”

These are so cool.
And so well done.
Thank you, John! Glad to have you here on the blog 🙂
Hope…always the one thing that we have…even when everything else is gone. Did I tell you how awesome I think your micro fiction is already? Its like you create a masterpiece every single time. Loved it
Being positive in every adversity is the way it should be!!
Completely agree 🙂
“You and I. Together.”
This combination is so heartbreakingly romantic *stares in awe at your genius*
Another great 42-word piece, Shailaja! 🙂 <3
You’re too easily awed. I’m just a newbie at this. That said, thank you very much ?
Slick and yet complete! Some great thinking you have lady!
Thanks Kala 🙂
You’ve created a wonderful characterization with Meg. I like how fast she went from glib to strong. Also wonderful? Seeing you on the grids.
Thanks Nate! Glad that came across.
Yes! I have missed the grids and wanted to come back. Hopefully I will be more regular here on. Just juggling too much 🙁
Oh dear…well – I’m all for the power of positive thinking
It’s what keeps us going. Most days.
Hope.
It’s what tides us through.
Sometimes… no wait, often …. the light at the end of that dismal tunnel.
Every single day, to be honest. That and happiness 🙂
Thanks for sharing such a wonderful story
Wow.. so short yet so profound. You’re indeed a master storyteller my friend. Now, go tell your own and slightly longer one soooooon ok?
Working actively on it. You need to push me all through April/May okay? 😀
Mind over matter – that’s the way to go. Nice Shailaja :-).
Thanks Tulika. About time we showed people the power of the mind ☺
Never give up hope!
Never. It’s what keeps us afloat.
What a beautiful story you weaved in just 42 words! I’m stunned!
Cheers
Thanks Geetika 🙂 It’s fun writing microfiction.
