A whimsical
step by my father pushed us into the dark lanes of extreme poverty .
Surrendering
our lives into the clutches of fate that seemed to have seized us in it’s fist .
Those days
of hardships made me feel , as if it was a trap for the lifetime .
The starved
faces of my family coerced me to agree to every disagreeable proposal even
though it demanded me to sell my body .
And just
then she appeared , my old headmistress , an unexpected visitor inside our dingy
single room , offering me a job at my school and restoring my faith on humanity .
A 100 words ( Write Tribe's 100 words on Saturday 2014 # 10 ) Five Sentence Fiction with prompt " Whimsical " and Blog Adda's WOW prompt "It was a trap" .
