A tranquil day in the garden turns strange when one girl saves a butterfly doomed to be squished by another.

Sam Kaufman is a writer from Connecticut. She started avidly writing in her sophomore year of high school doing both novels and short stories. She mostly writes dystopian tales but occasionally slips into fantasy as it is her favorite genre to read. This flash fiction is her first dip into the genre of horror.
