The random word of today is «turn» — with a twist — the story begins with : “her shoes were too tight”. Please take all the time you need to read that short short story. Thirty seconds spent here with me and my text will go a long way for my futures writing! Many thanks

A black and white modern illustration of a young woman holding a pair of shoes

Her shoes were too tight. And so was her room. And her life. To be honest everything felt tight and miserable on that Sunday morning. She wanted out. She did not want to wait in line before clocking in. She knew her turn would come someday. But Annie wanted that someday today. So she got rid of her shoes, put on a pair of used up jeans before snatching my fountain pen to write up her very own happy ending.
