For this prompt, I found it on Pinterest and thought it would be a fun little prompt to write out a short story with. This one was fairly easy to write out, and yes I know I posted it late on a Sunday but I wanted to have a couple of people proof read it for me before I posted for the world to see my version of the prompt. At first I toyed around with the idea of making the main character a man, but I don’t know something seemed write about the main character being the Time Travelers Daughter.
And as for the choice of destination in the past: I have a love for the Medieval Ages and it seemed like a good reason, using the plague as for the pity that the time traveler took on the child he saw who has seemingly lost her family to the plague. In an effort (obviously) to save the young child, he took her home with him to the present. But all of that is just backstory which you will also read in the story, although that is not where it starts out. Although it does start where the main character, Lisa, already knows that she is the daughter of a time traveler and is haunted by the unknowing of her life she left behind.
I hope that you enjoy this new story and look forward to the next flash fiction or short story!
See y’all in two weeks!
