Neighbourhood gossip… – FFFC

Cyranny7 Comments

  She was sitting on the bench in front of the store when the old lady slowly walked her way. You young lady aren’t from the neighbourhood, are you??

Cyranny7 Comments

  It had been weeks since the two men had left the village. She sat in a corner of the room and brushed her fingers on the still unopened letter. She wished she could have shared this moment with her mother, wether the news locked in the fragile envelope were good or bad. Unfortunately, someone…… Continue reading The letter…

I love you… – FFFC

  He could hear the noise around, but his ears were buzzing. It had started with an innocent chat at his signing session downtown, when his latest book had come out. She was rather charming, though a little intense. He had been doing well with his two previous novels, but not the kind of success…… Continue reading I love you… – FFFC

Just a walk – FFFC

Cyranny3 Comments

    When she had answered the door, he simply stood there, all smiles. She felt her toes curling, at the sight of the tall silhouette. He usually would have helped himself in, not bothering to wait until she’d come to welcome him. His sudden politeness worried her a bit. Taking a step back, she…… Continue reading Just a walk – FFFC
