#PenPrompter: Nibedita Rajguru

A friendship that ended. A trust that was broken. Words left unsaid. A loss that changed everything. We all have things we find difficult to let go of.

Write a story about someone who is holding on to something from their past. It could be a person, a memory, a mistake or something they wish had gone differently. Then bring us to the moment when something makes them see it differently. What helps them let go and move on?

Your story can be about anything, in any genre. Take it wherever you like.
