Twitfic on "Hope"

I wrote these tweet-sized stories for Terribly Tiny Tale’s community tales prompt – hope. Did not make the cut there, so publishing it here!

Tale #1:

“My greatest nemesis defeated me today. Yet again”, said he.

“Who?”, she asked.

“Hope”, replied Cancer.

Tale #2:

He drove Mr. & Mrs. Hope home every night from the bar.

“A tip perhaps?”, he wondered as they tottered out of the car.

“Bah! High hopes!”

Tale #3:

I asked myself, “Is this good enough for a TTT shortlist?”

“I’m not too sure”, replied my brain.

“Don’t lose hope”, shot back my heart.
