RE: Finish the Fiction Story Contest - Week #36 - @bananafish

I'm glad you enjoyed the story. And that is also a good point you made, if the real granddaughter had visited, she might have received the broach. In a continuation of the story, I might see the actual granddaughter visiting the next day, only to arrive minutes after Mrs. Ellerton passed away (she did say she knew her end was near). And then the broach causing Susie so much bad luck and remorse that she actually tracked down the granddaughter and returned it to her. Maybe a little redemption in the end. :)

Sort:  

I agree with @calluna. I would add that poor working conditions should never justify to take advantage of an incompetent. Your ending is raw and opens reflections on human alienation and abuses over the weakest.. from a style point of view, the story is written with attention to details and smooth. Welcome again to the contest, keep it up!
