This microfiction story is for the prompt "so depressed". It reminds me of individuals who you don't know may be affected because there is no outward showing of distress. However, when someone is truly hurting, and you can see it, this may be a time to intervene and try to help someone in need. I base my story along those lines. A ZAPFIC50 story is told in exactly 50 words. The challenge was created by @felt.buzz.
I based my 50-word story on @mariannewest's Freewrite prompt: All the Daily Prompts 17.8.26 to 21.8.26. If you'd like to join in from the daily prompts, visit @daily.prompt's Profile and view each day's freewrite prompt.
Below is my story.

It wasn't as if they didn't know. Two gate attendants busied themselves and wouldn't address the situation.
"Just wait and see. I'll show them," a young man proclaimed, crying hysterically while talking incoherently.
The attendants failed to call security.
They allowed the young man to board.
Afterward, they faced accountability.


Este relato de microficción responde al tema «tan deprimido». Me hace pensar en aquellas personas que, aunque no las conozcas, pueden estar pasando por un mal momento porque no muestran ningún signo externo de angustia. Sin embargo, cuando alguien está sufriendo de verdad y se nota, puede que sea el momento de intervenir e intentar ayudar a quien lo necesita. Mi relato se basa en esa idea. Un relato ZAPFIC50 se cuenta en exactamente 50 palabras. El reto lo creó @felt.buzz.
He basado mi historia de 50 palabras en el tema de Freewrite de @mariannewest: Todas las propuestas diarias del 17/08/26 al 21/08/26. Si quieres participar en los temas diarios, visita el perfil de @daily.prompt y consulta el tema de escritura libre de cada día.
A continuación está mi historia:

Más vale prevenir que curar: nunca se sabe
No es que no lo supieran. Dos empleados de la puerta de embarque se mantenían ocupados y no querían abordar la situación.
«Ya veréis. Les daré una lección», proclamó un joven, llorando histéricamente mientras hablaba de forma incoherente.
Los empleados no llamaron a seguridad.
Permitieron que el joven subiera al avión.
Después, tuvieron que rendir cuentas.

The screenshot at WORDCOUNTER.net evidences my use of exactly 50 words to create my ZapFic50.


Good luck everyone with whatever your endeavors.
