100 Words

I took an hour to come up with this 100 word story. Since I put in this much effort, I gain the right to tag someone and that someone is going to be Visionary. Read on....

The INDIGO swerved onto the wrong side. A split second later, rubber tires squealed. CRASH. The 2 cars turned into scrap metal. I ran towards them. An unconscious woman was inside the FORD. A young girl was screaming inside the INDIGO. With great effort I pulled her limp body out. Others came running and helped me take them to the hospital.

The doctor said "The girl survived but the woman's dead."

When I went in, she screamed "Why didn't you save her?" No gratitude. No relief. I was dumbstruck.

"She was my mother." She said, tears streaming down her face.
