“The stars glistened brighter than any diamond could!” That ending is perfect in so many ways. Yes, they are shining up there, but it’s the hope of freedom that makes them glisten so much! And who else would compare them to diamonds but a thief. Clever!
I love this whole story! From the title and stomach-turning opening paragraphs to the end, it seems much larger than 100 words would allow.
Thanks! I started with the theme this time around, then worked my way toward a story. It's not typically how I do things, but hey, I needed a story, and it seemed like the best approach this time around.
