The prompts this week for 3WW were Callous, Persistent, and Interfere. Again I am writing my story in 55 words so I can use it for 55FFF.
She’s interfering in my life. My callous remarks yesterday should’ve stopped her bitching, but she doesn’t hear me. I have a job, dancing. My boss thinks I’m 18, but …….not for two more years.
She’s so persistent, wanting me back at school…….boring! She wants me to be a banker, to be a failure like her.

Dead good! I'll have to have a go at the 55 thingy!
Love that final sentence!
The NaisaiKu.. Challenge!
Great flash!
And dancing is success? ;> A short-lived career, but when you're young, who's thinking long-term. Thanks for the read.
Dead-on. I love it.
oh my, so much emotion packed into a mere 55 words. so much of a story. well done!
Redheels...
I used to work in a juvenile prison on the girls wing. I've seen a hundred stories like this. Sadly, it ain't fiction!
Excellent 55 once again my dear.
Thank you so much for visiting and playing. Have a Wonderful Week-End!

I have 2 girls and could hear that coming out of their mouths! Isn't it amazing how much smarter we are at 16 than we are at 40?
By the way...I love red heels! mines up...
Very poignant and a very common scenario. Great writing.
This is so scary as a parent. Well written.
Interesting how young people appraise an older person's life. What is a success to one is not to another. Nice 55! :)
Passionate Fiction
These days a stripper has much more credibility and respect than a banker.
Interesting twist on what one considers true success, ironic too, with all the recent talk of bank failures!
wow, rh...that was a great 55. i can totally envision this story.
It's your life...your choices...your ups & downs...live & learn! No one can make you do anything sista :) Nice 55.
