Saturday Centus #59

It's Saturday Centus again - in a nutshell, Jenny Matlock gives us a prompt from either herself or a guest submitter and then we have to write 100 or words less related to the prompt (the prompt doesn't count toward the 100 words) Then link it up to her blog. It's open until the following Saturday, so that means you have all week to participate by either reading or writing.  The prompt is in blue. http://jennymatlock.blogspot.com/search/label/Saturday%20Centus

I haven't done Centus for months but I thought I'd jump in again.  Not that I have anymore time and I'm all caught up but I missed doing it.  So we'll see how it goes.



Frances was excited about the cottage she had moved into.   It was the home she always dreamed of.
With the insurance money from her late husband, she had enough money to purchase it.

She was making her first fire and noticed something within the stone.  It was a photograph.  On the back it said Wilfred and Vivian - so sad.  "So sad; what does that mean?" she thought.

The cottage had been built in the 1800's and by the clothes; she could tell they were from that era.
She could hardly wait to start investigating what happened to Wilfred and Vivian.

    So sad? Why? Why? What happened? What is going on? Why was the photograph there?

    Geez.

    I think I'm gonna have to re-do my prompt for tomorrow so you can continue this little gem of a story.
