The Ridge
Melissa is the only one who knows her dad didn't kill her mom. She knows a monster did it. She saw it herself when she was nine years old. Or so she thinks.Now, being twenty three and fresh out of college, she knows there is no such thing as monsters. There weren't any voices to hide from under her blanket, there weren't any shadows chasing her in the halls, those were all fantasies of a kid with too much imagination. Yet, she is still determined to find out what really happened to her parents, and most of all, why.Because the one thing she does know, is that people have lied to her. All of them. All the time.---This is my entry for the TEGSA 2025, a writing prompt contest that will finish August 31st. I'm not sure how fast I'll update this story but by the end of August, the 10 chapters will be on.Enjoy!…
