The Promise | ZAPFIC50 MONDAY (1/8/24) | Prompt: prosper (prosperar)
It's time for the ZAPFIC50 Monday challenge again. This new challenge by @felt-buzz presented the opportunity to explore the prompt this week "prosper". When I think of being prosperous or someone having the ability to prosper, I think of people who are happy, healthy, and wealthy. But it takes more than that to truly be prosperous. One can proper in their faith and their spirit as well as in their finances. I share a flash fiction story that relates to someone taking advantage of the downtrodden for their own gain. These type of actions will not lead to prosperity for the perpetrator. The format of this challenge is a ZAPFIC50Monday story, one that must be told in exactly 50 words.
My story is below:
Enthralled by Prosper's charm, hundreds flocked to him. The room was overflowing with hope. There were people everywhere. People stuffed hands in empty pockets. People prayed. People consoled others. People doubtful whether Prosper would deliver.
Finished praying, Prosper leaned down, holding a prayer cup, hoping someone would spare a dollar.

Ha llegado la hora del reto de los lunes de ZAPFIC50. Este nuevo reto por @felt-buzz presentó la oportunidad de explorar el tema de esta semana "prosperar". Cuando pienso en ser próspero o en alguien que tiene la capacidad de prosperar, pienso en personas felices, sanas y ricas. Pero se necesita más que eso para ser verdaderamente próspero. Uno puede ser próspero tanto en su fe y su espíritu como en sus finanzas. Comparto una historia de ficción flash que se relaciona con alguien que se aprovecha de los oprimidos para su propio beneficio. Este tipo de acciones no conducirán a la prosperidad del autor. El formato de este desafío es una historia ZAPFIC50Monday, que debe contarse exactamente en 50 palabras.
A continuación mi historia.
La promesa
Embelesados por el encanto de Prosper, cientos de personas acudieron a él. La sala rebosaba esperanza. Había gente por todas partes. La gente se metía las manos en los bolsillos vacíos. La gente rezaba. La gente consolaba a los demás. La gente dudaba de si Prosper cumpliría.
Cuando terminó de rezar, Prosper se inclinó, sosteniendo una copa de oración, con la esperanza de que alguien le diera un dólar.
