The Forgotten Girls
by Brent H.

How it begins

You and your friend Pari have been digging out an escape tunnel. Yesterday she told you that it was ready and that she would come get you right after dinner. Unfortunately, it's already night and she's half an hour late, which is worrying you very much. Even worse, Nikhil probably isn't planning to leave for at least a few hours, and by then you doubt you'll have any chance.

Notable features

Written for Vanderbilt University's 2012 Commons Reading Competition, this piece was inspired by "Half the Sky: Turning Oppression into Opportunity for Women Worldwide" by Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn LINK. It is a serious piece that explores the story of one young woman enslaved in the sex trade.
