Unearthing Secrets from April 1989
#WritcoStoryPrompt47
Write a story based on this famous excerpt from Revival by Stephen King:

He unlocked a door and led me through an office that was empty of furniture, although I could still see square clean patches on the grimy linoleum, where the legs of a desk had once stood. On the wall was a curling calendar with April 1989 showing. As we walked through the empty office, a musty, nostalgic scent lingered in the air, reminiscent of years gone by. The man who had unlocked the door continued to guide me through the space, and I couldn't help but wonder about the history hidden within these walls. The curling calendar on the wall, frozen in time at April 1989, served as a poignant reminder of days long past.

I followed the man's lead, curiosity piqued by the clean patches on the linoleum floor, remnants of where desks had once been. It was as if this office had been abruptly abandoned, leaving behind a ghostly impression of its former life. I had so many questions, but I was content to let the mystery unfold as we ventured further into the heart of this abandoned office.

Little did I know that this seemingly empty place held secrets and stories waiting to be uncovered.
