RE: Welcome Home [24 hour short story challenge]
A really sweet ending...
It is sad how we shut people up sometimes without really hearing them out or making efforts to search deeper for the truth. Kids often fall victim to this, which really is sad.
They may be kids, but I think it is unfair to always judge what they say as "false" without digging deep, there might be a bit of truth in it..
The dragon is really sweet, he treasured all of those memories for that long...
I enjoyed reading through your story.
I agree, that was kind of what I thought of when I read the prompt. I also have some personal experience, my mom was much like this with me when I was young and as an adult that's left some lingering effects that I wanted to convey in the story.
Thank you for reading, and I'm glad you enjoyed it ^^
It must have been really hard enduring all of that.
And that sleeping without food punishment just went a bit far... I conveyed it really nicely.
You're welcome.
