Excellent The ravages of war and genocide. A Family In Exile by papa55mike

Darkness engulfs the mountains leaving only the billions of stars along the Milky Way for light. Maybe there's a world of peace somewhere in the stars. My wife and daughter are sleeping on their backpacks for pillows. Those satchels contain everything we have. I'm a husband and a father who only possesses the clothes on his back. What kind of future can I give my family? We watched our home destroyed while bullets flew over our heads. Ten years of hard work disappeared in a moment. The lives we once knew no longer exist. Where do we find hope now? Author Notes I wrote this one hundred word story for a contest with the prompt EXILE. Any help will be greatly appreciated! Many thanks for stopping by to read. Have a great day, and God bless. mike
