Intriguing.

any object may be instigators of regret as long as the memory holds up

I think this is disturbing and so depressing. How objects can hold so much memory, it’s insane. I like the way you wrote the ending.
Good for sure.

That was sad, and a very different take on the challenge. The end winds up ambiguous, whether the forgetting is a bad thing or a sign of healing. Maybe both? Maybe he gets to move on now?

Great entry.

You build up to a feeling of hope in the final paragraph, and then crash it all down with that final line…because sometimes healing hurts even more than the initial pain.

This is, indeed, extremely sad, and shows us all how such a simple thing can have such drastic consequences.
Almost butterfly effect-ish…
Really well written
