Welcome first time and repeat readers! My fifth #sixsunday contribution is below, with the stories previous first, second, third and fourth stored safely.
“Crystal,” I announced to the car.
“You’re talking to yourself again, kid.”
I pet the dog at my feet, “I want to call her Crystal. Ok girl, you are Crystal.” Cindy did not ask why since she heard my story already. Crystal was my sister.
I love the comments and look forward to your thoughts.
Great six, l'm sensing sadness, intrigued!
ReplyDeletesounds good--went back to read the prior ones to get the set up. nicely done.

Intriguing she named a dog after her sister.
ReplyDeleteWas? Oh dear :(!
ReplyDeleteGotta love a dog. Great six!
ReplyDeleteOh I think something sad is about to happen. :-(
ReplyDeleteYup, Crystal 'was' her sister. Sad stuff unless you think how this is the first dog our MC Erica has seen in 3 months. Maybe the dog Crystal is a sign of hope.
ReplyDeleteMaybe ;)
It's a link she desperately needs, I think. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeletei sense some shakiness in her tone. intrigued!
ReplyDeleteThnx for sharing with us.
Sounds like an interesting story...
ReplyDeleteSounds intriguing...
ReplyDeleteAwww... :(
ReplyDeleteI'm a sucker for dogs in a book, so you've hooked me. Let's hope Crystal is the start of better things.
ReplyDeleteGreat six. I'm intrigued. . .
ReplyDeleteIntriguing six... A bit sad too.
ReplyDeleteYup, it is sad to think about, but to do the story any justice, I couldn't be all 'sunshine, rainbows & fluffy bunnies' in a zombie apocalypse.
ReplyDeleteI like the set-up, but (as a dyslexic person) I know I would get eternally confused by two characters with names starting with the same letter and about the same length :)
ReplyDeleteI can't ruin the book, but no, Cindy wont always be in the spotlight. :)
ReplyDeleteNice! Now I want to know why the sister is important xD
ReplyDeleteVery interesting six...raises some questions. I think I'll go back, too and read the previous ones ☺
ReplyDeleteThis makes me sad. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThat's good about Cindy...she's definitely not my favorite. In fact she ranks below Crystal in my book.
ReplyDeletegreat six, xoxox sis
