Outcast


We meet Tina at the age of thirty-five, outcast in society. No one from her past talks to her. She is being ignored by all. To the point she left the moved to another area.

Tina holds great grief and has moved on trying to forget what happened and find some sort of closure.

She lived in a house her parents owned in the same area. Things were fine. Until one night she had a nightmare her sister died in accident at home. She woke to a knock on the door and bad news, it was true. She didn’t know what to make of it.

She turned up at the parent’s house and everyone was acting suspiciously. Tina tried to put things in order in her mind but she couldn’t. A man turned up at the door claiming he was her fiancé, but she knew nothing about this. Her mother quietly ushered him into a room and shut the door. Her father told the police the sister slept in the living room but she slept in a room on first floor. Tina was suspicious was it honour they didn’t want anyone to find out. The fiancé even said she told everyone, but Tina knew she hadn’t been told.

She then took her suspicions to the police. The parents interviewed and nothing came of it. Her parents turned on Tina. They told everyone that she was mad and not to talk to her. she was cast out of there will and no family talked to her. Tina is forever looking over her shoulder now. Which has left her thinking was it the right move or not?
