Memory
She didn’t want to remember, it was a long time ago and a different life. But suddenly, without warning she is whisked back to a moment in time. It’s a faded memory, but still it haunts her. How did it push itself back into her mind? She had buried it for so long. Triggered by a sound or an image perhaps? She pushes it away quickly. She looks around did anyone notice her shudder? It was only a split second. She steadies herself. No one noticed. That life is in the past she reminds herself and there it must stay.

Very nice, LesleyAnne. I think we've all had a memory we wanted kept buried resurrect itself when we least expected it.

I like it LesleyAnne, but I must admit to being more than a little curious about that memory!

Oh yes - I’ve got a couple of those, LesleyAnne. You’ve caught that ‘catching you unawares’ moment brilliantly.
