55 fiction: the last mistake..

he was angry. "Why did you go without my permission?" she whimpered in pain. He whipped her black and blue.."your last mistake", he threatened in a harsh whisper.
In the silence of the night, a horrifying scream, a gasp,a sigh..she lowered the blood stained axe with a firm whisper,"your LAST mistake!"

p.s: my first attempt at 55 fiction:) do drop in ya feedback!
P.s.s: for those who dont know bout 55 fiction its fiction limited to 55 words:)

Amit Kumar Singh said...

Shaunak Mukherjee said...

Nice. As soin said, she shouldn't have come back. Or maybe she came back to pick up the axe.

Always wanted to try my hand at 55 fiction. Maybe my next post :D

Pramoda Meduri said...

hey..i felt it was too emotional decision taken by her..

by the way whats the relation beween she and he, like father daugthter, wife usband, brother sister..??

and good attempt to it ..by the way liked the new look ..:) keep writing ,,,

grace said...

Dear Divsi, Its one of the most compact and effective piece of writing I have ever come across.
Wow! There is a lot of creative excellence which goes behind these 55 words!Kudos to you.
Also you seem to have a flawless taste in photography.Lovely pic again.
On another note thanks for taking the care to inform me about the problems with posting comments. I sorted it out last night itself, would appreciate if you could try again.

pls note
Now the story.

55 fiction!! thanks for telling. i did not know this.

Ok..now my comments
Since it is short very short.. you should not repeat perhaps.. and sply the climax senbtence..'it is your last mistake'...

It took away the punch

It cld have been like this say

She whimpered in pain "Pls do not beat me" ..Angry, towering up over the limp woman.. He shouted.. "why did you go without my permission?' His voice thundered and filled the silence of the night.. echoing again and again as if a demon has rised from hell. "My first mistake.. I will not do it again" she cried..

Whoosh!! Splat!! Blood spew all over.. bones shattered...the axe in his hand swung "Your last"

Little more Punch?
What ?
Of course I am not even a writer!! your story is Good because it has a Good Idea.. a story to tell.. brings out some pain and tragedy and frailty of women in married life.. wives..
:-))

bondgal_rulz said...

OMG!! OMG!! OMG!!!

I absolutely LOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUED it lahday!!!!!!!!

I mean kya mast wala twist dia tune re!!! Ek baar ko tto meko laga ki tune isspelling mishtake kar di hai!! It was only half a second later that I realised ohhh!! What a dork I'm! he he

BRILLIANT first attempt! First attempt aisa hai tto I wonder what to expect from you in the future. :P

And and and in love with the header pic. It's as good as the earlier one, which I think I have told you earlier is one of teh best I have seen thus far. :)

*Katha khatam* :D

Cheers

What a different way :)

itsyvitsy said...

My take on this is that there are three people in this flash fiction. Let's see if I can make a story! The husband beat his wife for stepping outside the house without his permission. This was quite usual in that household. But today the limits had been stretched and the daughter not able to tolerate the violence finally put an end to it all! How does that sound?

So even you have been smitten by 55 Fiction now!!!
A nice one and a wonderful attempt. The end was predictable and I was waiting for a twist!!

The header pic is really heartfelt.

Harsha Chittar said...

Hi divsi
I am not at all a fan of 55 Fiction.
But I also believe it is the hardest to write. For a first attempt, u have done very well.
I like the header pic of your blog.
