 And now...

***Here's Today's Challenge!***

Choose an emotion. Any emotion.

Write a 5-sentence story that:

Tells us about this emotion without ever saying what that emotion is. Never name the emotion. 

Describe it only.

Commenters will try to guess your emotion!

GO.

Tip: Use things like dialogue and body language to show us how/what the character is feeling.
