Prompt: 005. summer<\/h1>\n

1. It was the hottest summer on record.<\/h2>\n

A. Two more elderly people had been found dead in their homes. It was the hottest summer on record and it wasn’t anywhere close to ending.<\/p>\n

There was talk that the water shortage was getting worse. They were already on short rations, but they were going to be cut even shorter. Just enough that each person could drink each day and have some for cooking. Otherwise there was talk of a community bathhouse being built and each family being allowed a bath one day a week.<\/p>\n

It was turning into a miserable season, with everyone being hot, smelly, and short-tempered. No one was looking forward to the announcement that they’d be allowed even less water.<\/p>\n

\n

2. Her name was Summer and she was beautiful.<\/h2>\n

A. He wanted her the moment he saw her. From her hair to her feet, she was everything he’d ever desired.<\/p>\n

He wanted to touch her, hold her, own her. He wanted every part of her for his own.<\/p>\n

He didn’t know her true name, only the name he gave her: Summer.<\/p>\n

\n

3. It was either summer school or repeating a year. It wasn’t really a choice at all.<\/h2>\n

A. It was either summer school or repeating a year. It wasn’t really a choice at all. There was no way she was losing her summer to something as stupid as school.<\/p>\n

B. It was either summer school or repeating a year. It wasn’t really a choice at all.<\/p>\n

Considering how badly she’d messed up, it was a relief that her parents eventually stopped yelling at her. She didn’t complain when she was signed up for summer school and didn’t make her usual sounds of misery as she put on her uniform the first day of class.<\/p>\n
