Description
*** A SHORT STORY BY BEST SELLING & AWARD WINNING AUTHOR - HUGH B. LONG ***
A selfless girl sacrifices everything, struggling to survive in a gritty dystopian future in order to fulfill her little sister's one dream - to see the Moon.
Most people would agree that there are limits to what you can own; owning other people is forbidden, at least in the modern world. But what about everything else? We can own the land, the minerals underground, as well as the sea (within a set number of miles of sovereign territory). But what about the sky? Or even the moon?
In a dystopian future, Mega Corp has covered the globe in a shell, blocking the entire view of the sky. In this world, two sisters share a simple dream - to see the moon in the night sky.
Warning - make sure you have a box of Kleenex or tissues while reading this story!
(This short story is 5284 words long.)
