Flash fiction or micro fiction writing is a fiction writing work of extreme brevity. You express the emotion of characters, a plot in a very small number of words. AT #FridayFOtoFIction we give you a photo prompt and ask you to write a flash fiction or a micro fiction about the photo.
Did you know, fiction writing is good for you? It is a world of freedom and imagination. We are loving the entries in #FridayFotoFiction. Every week we are picking up a featured blogger and at the end of the month we pick up a monthly winner for consistent participation who wins cash prize/ Amazon Vouchers. Isn’t that cool!
#FridayFotoFiction Prompt Sep 15-20
The Friend – Micro Fiction #FridayFotoFiction
The day had finally arrived. The day for which Jude had waited for several years.
“All ready?”
“Yes boss” he replied in a low voice.
As Jude walked through the corridor his eyes longed for someone. He checked around him but didn’t see the familiar face.
“Sign here” pointed the clerk.
“Here’re your belongings” announced the clerk.
Jude was stepping out in the world after a very long time. He didn’t know if he could face the world again. Will the world accept him?
As he walked out of the penitentiary gates his eyes locked with those of a friend’s. A friend with whom he shared everything, over the last eight years. A friend, without whom, he’s incomplete.
Alex and Jude both were released on the same day. They walked towards their new life together. This time they didn’t bother about anyone. They wanted to be there for each other.

There r few such friends who make us complete….they need to b treasured
It’s good not to bother if you got a friend along. Good post.
Glad that they would be facing the world together, side by side. Good one, Tina.
Some relationships never end. Nice write up.
Lovely take on the prompt Tina. Nothing can put you down if you have a friend standing by you.
Thats so heartening- friendship is a very special bond. You have beautifully depicted it here
Friendship is one such relationship which doesn’t require any platform or approval of right/wrong. Lovely post Tina
Wow, embarking on a new life with such a friend is a boon. Great write!
Somewhere, I think they might be a bit more than friends. Your story being set in the backdrop of a penitentiary just adds a bit more to that line of thought. A very interesting take, Tina. Enjoyed reading it.
They infact are much more. Now they are a couple. That’s what the prompt is about
Friendship can start and blossom in the dungeons! So very refreshingly different take on prompt. Engaging tale, Tina!

Lovely take. With such a friend by your side, a new beginning does come with a lot of promises.
New beginnings with old friends! Life looks good for Jude and Alex. Thanks for the prompt Tina!
