He faces the old man who already is sitting on the sand, ready to give it all up. “Is there no other way out?” he asks dropping to the floor, his hands lay on the sand as well.“I do not know boy.

“Rivals.” by Micheal Sanjay

Submitted to Contest #61

 Just like every other Friday, I was in the bookshop looking for a book to buy. I finally found the one with the perfect kind of romance I had been looking for 'Vanished' by Danielle Steel. "Wow you have a good taste for romance." The lady who owns the store said when I came to pay for the book. Miss Stella and I had become very close because of my regular Friday visits in her store.
