Creative Writing Challenge: The Unrequited Love Story (vol. 2, task 7)

Hello guys,

It's pretty October already and seems like we are evidents of a whole new drama this season. I'm trying to avoid commenting what's happening out there, but it's always knocking on the door. It's not good to be indifferent and of course I'm not. But let's continue this branch of our conversation for another post.

I'm already planning what kind of surpsise to offer you at the end of this challenge. You see, I'm not even rewarded as much as I could be, but this time will come. Persistence, patience, love are things we need to cultivate through our WHOLE life. It's like taking care of your own garden. Stop paying attention and you'll soon see weeds growing. It's simple as that.

So, last time you had to be creative about continuing a story in a hospital nearby the lovely Chicago :) Here's your version of the story how Adam ended up lying on a bed in a hospital.

Ladies and gentlemen,

Take a deep breath.

In the next task

You will be writing about

Unrequited Love.

Task #7: The Unrequited Love Story


Adam: Charles, are we still in the hospital.

Charles: Yes sir, after my last story you fell asleep.

Adam: Good. Charles, may I share something with you? I'd like to tell about one of the girls I really fell in love with.

Charles: I'd love to hear that story sir. Let me pour you a glass of water.

Adam: Thank you Charles! You are so kind. So, here we go. I was 22 years old only. The last time I fell in love was maybe 8 years ago. ...

Your task guys is to continue Charle's story. Women could write about from Eva's perspective.

Some guidance:

Build characters in few sentences, introduce them to each other AND... you decide how to continue - be gentle, be nasty, be yourself - it's your own decision. And if you heart is big enough, share how your character overcame the whole situation, at least in a short paragraph at the end of the story.

As mentioned above women could write from a girl/woman perspective and men could write about men.

Additional comment:
I think one exercise about unrequited love is enough for the next 10 creative writing challenges :))) Do you agree?
