For this week’s prompt, your character must face a new beginning that is both the result of loss and new possibility.
How can anyone make up for taking a life or millions of lives? No one can bring back Chaya’s family or repay her for the loss that she suffered. Before she was freed, Chaya considered how she could punish the entire Nazi party. She thought of a million ways to exact revenge. However, her best plan was to be a successful pianist.
After two years at the camp, Chaya wasn’t sure if she would ever be free again. Chaya knew that if she could survive , she could succeed and have her own sort of justice. Her dreams of playing around the world kept her spirit alive.
In 1945, she was able to walk past the gates of her own free will. Chaya became the best pianist on the planet. No one would ever question her worth again.
