Drabble is a extremely short work of fiction exactly one hundred words in length.
Tried out one. Don't forget to count the words!
She looked at her wedding ring and thought, “It’s all over”. They had no choice but to part their ways. She let out a sigh as memories filled her mind and tears filled her eyes. More tears ran down as she removed the ring from her finger. She walked to the study silently. The door was half open and lights on. She was firm with her decision and felt she was ready to speak to him. She opened the door, stood in silence. She wasn’t ready for what awaited her. All that she saw were feet that hung in silence.

amazing... keep writing :)
Beautiful piece of writing Amrita. Thats a lot of emotion crammed into 100 words! You have raised my expectations .. now looking forward to lots more from you :)
Similar to Drabble, there is the 55 fiction which is pretty popular on blogosphere. Wikipedia mentions several criteria for 55 fiction, but often the only one that is followed is - it must have no more than 55 words. I suggest you give this a try too!
Thanks Varun :)
@kiran- Thank u very much :)
Yes, I have read quite a few 55ers which you have in your blog. I feel its more challenging than a drabble. Will give it a try soon:)
