#FlashFictionFriday... more than a chair







It was a chair. Just a chair. That's that they all said.
Not to Pauline it wasn't.
To her it was hopes, dreams and sadly, what might have been.
The seat was worn and the velvet had lost its nap. Scuff and scars in the wood cut through the grain, and the arms showed signs of wear.
Pauline sat on her knees, closed her eyes and wished.
One more chance, just time to say yes.
The creak made her start. The soft tap on her head made her look up.  
"What do you say pet?"
She sighed. "Yes please Sir."

    Wonderfully written flash. The visuals were amazing. I could really sense her longing for him. The chair held so many memories. Is he really there or just a ghost?
