Story Time Quarterly Blog Hop: The Implant Caregiver

-
This is a story blog hop. At the end, below, you will find a list of other short speculative fictions available for you!  Enjoy! As a glowing red light switches to green on her wrist and forearm, the red metallic door unlocks to let her in, then clicks behind her.

She burnt ou from her life as a signer then became a mom. She had her first child when i had my third one. I still lobe her voice. I wish she gets to keep singing until the end of her life.
