A final farewell [A 50 word short]

in #fiftywords6 years ago (edited)

Hello everyone,

Since a few days I found my way back to the keyboard and I've been producing some new stories. Most of them are still in the drafting- and editing phase, but at least I got this little challenge done! The prompt for this week's #fiftywords challenge by @jayna was "pop". Enjoy!


A final farewell


A breeze blows the cocäine off my hand.
Shit.
I snort it clean and take out the bottle of pills.
Tipping my head, I pop one in and take a sip of water.
I return to the graveside whilst blowing my nose.
Pop’s coffin already buried.
Bastard never waited.


Thanks to the people over at @ink-ubator to help me with the brainstorm and editing process of this little story.

Thanks for reading and see you next time,

Wow, emotive stuff... Drugs fogging the brain of another likely decent person.. Sad story, but oh so real..

Very nicely done, @tuwore! This is powerful. Your main character’s disposition really comes through.

Wow... Sadly gripping. Well written.

😄😇😄
