50 Word Story Contest Week #18 - Innocence Lost

Innocence Lost

She thought back on the sea of smiles there to see her perform live. Ariana remembered one girl in particular, wavy brown hair and olive skin. Emerald eyes that glittered along with that smile. She helplessly smiled in return. The building shook with fury, and the memory shattered.


Tough word this week! This story takes its inspiration from the Ariana Grande concert bombing. Maybe a bit of a heavy topic for a contest like this, but its where my mind went so I rolled with it, so hopefully nobody takes offense.


As always I heard of the contest just by browsing Steemit, this is my 6th week participating.

If you enjoyed the entry, check out my original story Crossroads. Just released chapter 5, so its not too late to get started with it! Links to the chapters are below.
