“Sarah, wake up!” Saree and Serge are yelling at Sarah. But it can’t be them, Nana said they were both dead while I was resting in the hospital.

The ice cold water made Sarah jump up. “Are you two nuts?”

Wait am I nuts? They are both supposed to be dead, but their bodies are as solid as mine. Mine? Oh, god, I am a little kid again. This can’t be happening!

Just then Sarah spotted the statue Poppa made for Nana just after their Momma died. He always said that the 3 wings were to represent her 3 triplets, the 3 favorite things in her life. She only had ONE favorite thing, me! ME!!!

About Tessa

My name is Tessa Dean and I am an author and blogger. My writing styles vary and I love writing using prompts. I am also writing my first book, a Memoir entitled "Government Property - A Memoir of a Military Wife". This is being published on the blog rather than the traditional way. I am putting up chapters as I go along. I keep my blog filled with useful content, stories, and poems. Plenty to keep you busy. I have also been interviewed by blogs and had other posts published on many different blogs. I also wrote a series of articles on Bipolar Disorder for IBPF (International Bipolar Foundation). I am in my 60’s and disabled which allows me plenty of time to write to my heart’s content. I live in southern New Jersey and have 3 children and 5 grandchildren. My oldest grandchild is a Sargent in the United States Marine Corps.

Dear Tessa,

i like how you seem to have worked the prompt into a continuing saga. Did you post late? Where is everyone? (I got back late this weekend.)

Aloha,

Doug

  Thank you Doug! I am glad you stopped by. Yes it was late. I have many continuing sagas from using prompts. I use several prompt sites.

  Oh thank you! Writing from the prompts can be so hard to keep a series going.

This is one of my favorites of yours. I like the visual of the picture and that last paragraph was a perfect finish. I hope you continue this 🙂
