Tainted Innocence

Author's Note : Before reading, just keep in mind I'm a 16 year old. Of course it's not an excuse for bad writing but this is my first attempt at such a topic. Cut me some slack, thoda sa. :)


She sits tall, taking down notes diligently. She's been the talk of the staff room since ages. And why wouldn't she? A small town girl, she came out of practically nowhere, but her impact - let's just say it was too strong to be ignored!
Almost everyone knew her story. She belonged to the nearby town which had more of a village-y feel to it, her parents had a small plot of land on which they grew enough only to survive. She had been spotted at her school farewell ceremony by the present principal who'd reluctantly attended the function as the guest of honor, and awarded a full scholarship.
The bell rang and she walked out. It was the 15th of the month. She called her parents on the outdated Nokia phone she'd managed to buy them. After a few rings, they picked up. 
She said that yes she was fine, the job was going great and she would send the money soon.
She changed into her work clothes, tied up her hair, grabbed her purse and left.
Later that night, she stood at the door, freed her luscious hazel hair and gently undid her robe. She made her way to the bed and purred seductively at the man lying down beside her.


The man bit her lips drawing blood while she whimpered and left after throwing a bundle of notes at her.
She lay still, tears streaming down her face. All of 18, she had almost perfected the art. She tried to console herself... Who would be ready to employ an 18 year old with no qualification or background while a hundred better prospects stood in front of them? Another year here and she would atleast have a better chance at a job, even if it was just at the local library or McDonald. Just another year she whispered,  one more year and I'll find a better job. One which doesn't leave with me feeling empty and violated.

  2. From your writing, nobody would have guessed your age.
    It make the readers feel the pain the protagonist is going through...and leaves us thinking. Well written. Keep blogging.

  12. Save it, keep it somewhere safe, go back later and add more or take out some or do whatever you feel needs to be done to it... it doesn't matter. Keep going with it. Much like the last piece you shared with us all, I see great potential. You are full of ideas! I want to know more...I want to know what happens with this girl, I want to know what makes her stop doing whatever it is she's doing, does she get sick? Does she get raped? Does she meet someone special...who shows her there's another way? Does her parents ever find out? So many questions...Congratulations, you've left your readers wanting more... Rough around the edges? WTH? Fix it later! You're only 16...there's always time to go back and fix it later.. Good luck to you!! XOXO!!!

  13. I think you did a good job. For a 16 year old, I commend your work. Reading this reminded me of the movie "laaga chunari mein daag" .. :)

  14. Hi. This is my 1st visit to your page and by the looks of it, certainly not the last.
    Oh and btw, this post was pretty well-woven. Wordings were used cleverly. One minor criticism, I would like to make (just a minor one...so, don't raise those eyebrows :P), is that you could have let her dark secret got revealed at the very end. I mean an element of unpredictability would have just made us say 'Aww'

    PS- Also, come to my blog some day...Poor me, very low traffic. :(

      Thanks once again x
