100 WC for Grown Ups

I decided to have another go at the 100 WC for Grown ups. It is a weekly challenge for all those writers who want to extend their audience to get feedback on their work.

This is this week’s prompt “their cries were heard.“

Here is my 100 words on for this prompt:-

Standing at the edge, the hole being filled. Tear stained cheeks all around. I placed a single rose on the mound of earth. Today we buried two sisters. Born together, died together.

One by one, the mourners left. I stood staring at the fresh mound of dirt. The carpet of floral tributes at my feet.

I heard a sound. I could be wrong, but I could swear I could hear tapping and “help us”.

I bent down starting to dig at the earth with my hands, but I was too late, their cries were heard until the end.
