Two Minutes- a 55 fiction

This post has been published by me as a part of the Blog-a-Ton 29; the 29th Edition of the online marathon of Bloggers; where we decide and we write. To be part of the next edition, visit and start following Blog-a-Ton. The topic for this month is 'TWO MINUTES'.



The snap-




The fiction- 


"Remember our first time....."
She almost smiled. "yeah, until those noodles got cooked"
"Two minutes..."


Silence hung, hard.
"I want to go back.." she whispered, eyes closed.


A lone tear, few seconds dragged by.

"Here we are" he whispered back.
She smelled noodles in the kitchen and started to sob. He bent down & kissed her still healing, scarred face.

    hmhm.... Not really. When I imagined it, I wanted it to be about a couple recovering from a disaster. (The wide with her healing scar and it's emotional trauma). I wanted the 2 minutes to represent a warm memory that they cherish and hold on to.

    And yeah, after reading your comment-- The story does have a possible connotation of domestic violence. Thank you for your comment.

    Yes, the story can be sad but then I think that their love will overcome the same. After all, the 2 minutes noodles is not just a memory but can be said as a shimmer of hope, lit from him to her. What say??

So what did you think???
