Hi, I was given this image as a stimulus for a short story, and I'm kind of stuck. I was hoping someone would be able to suggest some ideas based on the stimulus for a short story. The image was taken in a park in Tokyo if that helps.



Thanks

Dude, asking for ideas is plagiarism.

Take any of the characters. Read their expression. What's going through their mind? Do they have a back story?

Who is watching them? Does the picture remind you of you when you were younger?

Point of that was to make you think.

Now go and create.

The children are holding hands. Make start a story from a childhood experience.
The elder girl seems to be guiding/directing her younger brother's vision. Perhaps write a story about guidance or something fascinating which enables you to find belonging

tbh its a vague stimulus but lychnobity's ideas are a good starting point.
