STORY STARTER

Write a story in which a mundane item comes to be of vital importance.

You could think about the item or the scenario first, but the story should still make logical sense, without the item appearing randomly.

The Mask

I used to have a coworker from Japan

Who’d walk into the office with a mask

How quaint and funny, we’d gossip

Why does she use that, we would ask.


No winter would ever go by

That she didn’t use that accessory

She wanted protection from germs

And we’d say, how exaggerated our Kaori.


Well, look at all of us now

Masked every time we go out

And this object we thought was odd

Is something we can’t be without.
