The Park | A 100 Word Story

#103 Page of Ink

An elderly woman walks to the park. The same route for the past eighty-two years of her life. Memories of walking with her mother. Holding hands as they crossed the road. 

A lover whispers in her ear naughty words that make her blush as they lean against an old oak tree.

She tries to hold her daughter’s hand. An act her daughter hated. She pulls away and runs into a busy road. A tear rolls down her cheek. 

The park is empty save for that old oak tree. She can’t sit beneath it anymore. But she visits for the memories.
