“Momma, no don’t hang…”
The dial tone said it all.
“I will always love you.” A lie repeated so many times growing up to a child. But an adult, making their own choices. Unacceptable. Love is conditional.
Staring at the numbers doesn’t make them dial back. Should the child or the parent be the one to reach out? Who is responsible for the relationship?

I’m doing a serialized story for the first time. I’ve done a lot of flash fiction for the challenges in the past, but nothing continuous. It’s terrifying! Good luck with your challenge.

Great piece of Flash fiction. I’m discussing book genres for the challenge. I hope you will stop by Girl Who Reads
Obviously only Donnas read this….lol! Thanks for your visit to my blog, Mainely Write.
Is this a continuing story, or will you be doing exerpts from different stories?
This particular flash was a one-shot inspired by the picture. But Sundays (4/7 – F is First and Foremost) will be the third of a superhero romance story – with the second episode just happening on 3/31/2024 (Hold me against the dark). Some flashes demand expansion and others don’t. If you see anything you would like to know more about, just drop in a comment.
I love flash fiction! See you along the way!
