Beth looks back at the gate one last time before getting into the driver seat of her used car. It’ll be her last time here. She’s never coming back ever again. Her favorite place will be auctioned off along with everything she owns. Her car and everything she can stuff in it will be all she has left.
In the driver seat, she grips the wheel iron tight as she grits her teeth. It’s all his fault. Why did he had to go commit all those extortion and fraud? He knew it will get him in trouble. Why daddy, why?!

Each week, Rochelle Wisoff-Fields-Addicted to Purple hosts Friday Fictioneers where we’re challenged to write a piece of flash fiction in 100 words, more or less, based on the picture above.
I feel for her!

Thanks, I was trying to emphasize how angry she was. If it was me, I’ll be furious.

Losing your posession through bad luck or unwise decisions is one thing, but risking your family’s future with crime is another. No wonder she’s angry. Great take.
