But Sam held onto her breath because it often came back, rising and falling, and rising and falling, the last one always sounding worse than the first.

The yellow creaking school house in Terry, Kentucky never had more than thirty kids at once, even though the limit was twenty. There were only two rooms and a bathroom in the whole building. Rumors said that Mister Lanny was thinking about moving up north.

“Shh, it’s for my poem.” Sam cleared her throat. “The ship wailed, afraid to cave, For the water swelled in luscious waves.”
Lucy frowned.

PROMPT: Novel Writing Competition 2019
By four-thirty, I was exhausted of people and feared I couldn’t handle another enthusiastic introduction with anyone. How do they smile so much, I thought. It’s like they only know one emotion.Everything was so perfect that it felt superficial. Either that, or these people lived in their own little world without pain or toils, and I wasn’t sure which was more exasperating.
