Full Circle

Devastated by the murder of their daughter, could this couple find a way to forgive? Sometimes, life sets things in motion and forces us to see things clearly, from another person's perspective. An eye for an eye? A tooth for a tooth? A child for a child? A short story of mothers love, forgiveness and moving on.

(This short story was written for an on-the-spot writing contest back when I was in college. We were given one hour to write -by hand- in 1,500 words or less a short story that had three things in it - an old woman, a tree and a cemetery. This story won the Grand Finals and was published in the Philippine Star Newspaper. It was the second short I've ever written and posting it on Wattpad is giving me the inspiration I need to write once again.
