Enjoy today's flash.
Footprints
Head down, hands in his pockets, he retraced his
steps. This had been their beach, her foot prints next to his making deeper
imprints, as her body swelled with the fruit of their love. They'd been so
happy here, so expectant. If he closed his eyes, he could still sense her next
to him, even after all these years.
Vanilla teased his nostrils and he smiled at the
faint marks appearing next to his in the sand. A mere brush of gentle fingers
along his jaw, and then she was gone.
"Daddy."
He smiled at their daughter running towards him.
