A Ghost Love Story


(Image Source: http://www.pixabella.com/)



"Why can't you love me, Dearie?"

"Because you are not a human. You are a ghost."

"But what's that got to do with my emotions, Dearie?"

"Ok. Tell me. Do you have a heart to feel this love?"

"Oops. Err ... I guess I lost it somewhere while playing basket-heart with the other zombies yesterday."


This 55 words Micro-fiction is shared with Best 55 Fictionist Contest and the Prompt is Ghost.
