Flash Fiction

At a previous meeting a member read a short piece of fiction.  This encouraged me to write a 55 word     Short Story on the theme of 'The Fondest Kiss', but I did err slightly!

THE FONDEST KISS

'You will never see her again.
 You're a fucking bastard and
 you can kiss my arse' she screamed.
The neighbours heard. Curtains twitched.      
He left.                                                                    
Her foot kicked the door shut.                                
Shattering another pane.
Prejudice in the court room.
Two boxes of legal papers
held the pain and shattered hopes.
Now, a fatherless daughter.      

John Edwards.
