Written in response to the prompt 'Why are you here?' on thursthreads 27/6/24 “Why are you here?” She didn’t answer. Her reflection just stared at back at her with the same sad expression. Her head dropped forward as she stared into the sink. How long could she get away with hiding in here? Would they … Continue reading Interlude – a short prompt story
