Hi Iza,
This is an interesting story of what seems like faith but more like repentance. It seems like Maddy is paying for taking a flower by becoming one. Now she is knocking to come out. This also is a warning not to trust strangers.
Congrats for the honorable mentions in the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy
Have a good rest of the day and week.

Now I'll be afraid of little yellow flowers; especially, the ones with teeth. And everywhere I go, I'll be straining to hear those little voices crying out for help. LOL. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much for reading.

Well, Miss Iza. That is a creepy spin about. I did find myself wondering if you meant the jungle or the online shopping titan.
Anyways, great piece of work. Good luck in the upcoming competition.

Feeling is mutual!

This is very creative and interesting. It really does focus our attention on how we interact with the environment and encourage us to be mindful when randomly picking flowers! :)

Yup, it's so true. And I do have a bad habit to pick up flowers.

I thought Maddy was older at the beginning of the contest entry. I guess I was wrong. I enjoyed reading this creative entry. Thank you for sharing it with us. Good luck with the contest.

This was a great little fairy tale. There is an eerieness to it, this strange knock knock on the door and in the head of the girl. And the spooky thing is that the voice doesn't identify itself, or really promise anything. And I like how you had the girl replaced with the flower she took from the rainforest. On some level it speaks to our intervention with nature and it is a voice for our respect of nature. estory

Well, that is quite the mystery! I think you created some new form of supernatural fiction that the environmentalists would love! Best wishes in the contest!
By the way, I suggest changing your formatting to go to a new paragraph when you change speaker like:
"You were wrong; now you need to restore the balance. Let me in, and you will be free."
Maddy cried: "Fine, come in! But please don't hurt me!"
"I promise you will feel nothing."

I found this story quite suspenseful and full of mystery. It is perfect for the horror genre. You told a well-told story. I did enjoy reading it. Excellent work! Good luck!
