Doorbell

April 1, 2013


The doorbell rang.

Maddie's head jerked up as she wiped the tears from her eyes to see a shock of unruly black hair through the window.

She knew who it was. She knew who it had to be.

(He was back… He was back.)

She nearly fell over herself trying to get to the front door despite Jazz's attempts to make her stay where she was.

"Mom, please, no!" her daughter pleaded. "It can't be him!"

(No. He was safe! He had come home to her.)

Maddie flung the door open…

To see a crying girl dressed in ragged jeans.


And next one will be drabble number 100! Wow. Any suggestions for how to celebrate the occasion? :3
