darkness depression despair hope introspection psychological strength suicide

Background: To get back into writing I decided to do some short writing prompts based on images. This is the first one. The prompt is an image I found online under creative commons using the query 'eerie'. I picked my image prompt purely based on what spoke to me. I did not look at it again until it was time to write. This story is named after the name I gave the image when I saved it.

I am still writing this and at the moment I'm unsure of where the story is going. I am following where it leads me. To be honest I think I am exploring the emotional journey of my life, and re-contextualizing my baggage through writing this story.All Rights Reserved

He said throwing glowing match stick on a pile of clothes in front of him. She was looking at him with wide eyes. "Hey..Stop!!!" She tried to stop him but he yanked her away making her fall on ground. "Remember that I am not your fucking Hassan who will bear all your these shitty tantrums!! This is my house and here follows the rules I, Ibtihaj Ibrahim Usmani makes!!!" He said clenching her jaw. ______________ She was an innocent soul. He kills mercilessly. She was an independent bird.

Irrevocable |A Nigerian Romance. by NanaAmiinah

©️ 2017. Highest Ranking #2 on What's Hot list- Spiritual .. Imagine being in a type of house where you're banned from dating, having two choices: 1. To get married immediately after secondary school. 2. To get married after graduating college. Being a teenager has its up and downs, and Khadijah's might be a little bit of sneaking around and defying orders. Her father disapproved of the term, and the whole concept of dating.

Yet, Khadijah found a way to create her own choice and well, she had to face the consequences of her actions. .. "My heart beats for you Khadijah, feel it."
