SATURDAY CENTUS...

I'm joining in this weeks Centus hosted by
Jenny Matlock   
Visit her to see how others formed a short story with this weeks prompt using a scant 100 words. Prompt is purple






My eyes opened slowly and scanned the room. Memories started a slow waltz through my mind. I just couldn't wrap my head around this day.

Unbelievable to say the least. Would have never thought it could happen. Some people who knew me agreed it was quite unlikely. But it did. And life could never be as it was the day before.

What now? How can I explain this to anyone? How did it happen?

I'll just stay under the shelter of this warm quilt. No need to wonder how or why. Nothing I can do but remember It was the 11th Anniversary of my 49th birthday...
