Today’s prompt: Write a story with a countdown, starting at ten and ending at zero. Well, I tried that. And then I played around with it. And this is the result. I like the idea of time progressing, but you as a reader can decide if it’s been years or months or weeks or days. I just wanted to explore the way relationships can change. In the simplest way.
One.
Hello.
Two.
You’re funny.
Three.
See you around.
Four.
I missed you.
Five.
I like your eyes.
Six.
Let’s have dinner.
Seven.
I’m here for you, always.
Eight.
We’re friends, right?
Nine.
You’ve changed.
Ten.
Goodbye.
…
One.
Hello.
