This story has a good beginning and nice ending, she was locked up in a room, she tried hard to come out but in vain, at last she was set free; well said, well done. Write More Inspire More -- DR ALCREATOR

    Thank you for reading.

    This little story could be taken literally or as a metaphor.
    I think of it in both ways.
    The metaphor is anything that causes one to withdraw from a world that has hurt them. Locking oneself in a room feels like freedom form what is the torment. No more judgement.

    The literal is just what it says, a young female trying to hard to break into a world she doesn?t understand. Rebuffed she retreats to her round to ground herself. She blames the world and sees it as s battle. She will probably try again. But a good book in a looked room helps to heal rejection.

Hi there,

You may want to have a look at your opening line. It doesn't comply to the rules as you've substituted 'the' for 'her' before door, thus changing the starting sentence.

trapped In that room - in.

Freedom comes in many guises and it can all be down to perception.

I enjoyed this short piece. Solitude is a precious gift. There are times when we just need to be alone, without the interference of the outside world. Mind you, it can be handy to know where the key is!

    How true. It's funny that I wound't mind being locked in a room for a bit. I hope I would have my computer to write and books to read. Go away world. I will come out when I am rested. The problem is sometimes I think I do lost the key, which can become problematic. lol

a very unusual take on this prompt, I love it. freedom means a lot of different things to different people. I am glad she found peace..

Trapped to be free. Not much of a future to look forward to. However I do know the feeling. A welcoming relief for all of us loners. I get mine from driving in my car on freeways that can show me mountains. A brief stop for lunch is more than enough of seeing people.

    Thanks for reading.

    I don?t want to feel trapped, but I sometimes feel freer being alone. No one to tell me things that I can?t help or things I can?t do.
