You’re a Dead Duck

Synopsis:

This is a public domain story about a boy who accidentally kills his grandmother’s pet duck and hides it. He did not know that his sister saw him do it until she began using her knowledge to control him. He finally confesses to his grandmother who tells him she already knew, already forgave him and was just waiting for him to get tired of his sister enslaving him.

Background:

The story appealed to me because it illustrates how we allow things to control our decisions and our lives because we think we do not have any other choice, especially when secrets or failures are involved. I would like the story to bring the viewer to a place of awareness, hope and forgiveness.
