Submitted to Contest #258

Her camera dropped from her hands, falling and falling, until it hit the ground with a loud bang. The woman stared at it, unmoving. No…this must be some sort of joke, right? She thought to herself.

Submitted to Contest #254

“Have you seen it?” a woman asked. They were having this conversation huddled in the corner of a small restaurant of a quaint town.

“Spiral” by Kyla Tavares

Submitted to Contest #226

She didn’t know when she first noticed the ring inside the mansion on 3rd Street. Her job was to clean the mansion weekly. In the beginning, she only gave the ring a glance. She’d walk into the room to clean it and she’d clean around the ring. But she never touched it. She’d never thought about it much either. Yes it was beautiful, with its gold band dotted with diamonds that led to the biggest gem she’d ever seen sitting on top. It was a curse that came with her job. She was forced to clean things that she’d never get to own. She lived...
