Flash Fiction Friday

You bought a new house, over the winter. It was a great deal. heavily discounted after months, maybe years  on the market. It's an older place, a 'fixer-upper', but has great potential. Supposedly there had been a garden in back, too, buried under all that snow.  It's spring now, most of the snow has gone, and you've scraped off most of the old leaves. What will start pushing its way through the warm dirt first? 

Your choice, make it idyllic, make it horrific. Write 1000 words. due noonish, Friday April 19.
