He feared rains




He feared rains.

It was raining,like the day she died.

Just then he heard a baby's cries in the garden.his neighbour's kid was stuck in rains,all alone.

He deliberated but with the next cry,he ran outside.

He failed her that day, but saved a life today.

He no longer feared rains.



ps : This is a 55 fiction ... means it has just 55 words .. just an experiment :)

  4. Omg! I was just thinking of something like this that is a short story less than 100 words...

    This just to prove that the amount of words are no measure of the power of the story to be told! I loved it! Brilliant!
