Flash Fiction Friday
This week, the Random Word Generator has given me:
- fall
- day
- pharmacy
- bishop
- goose
And here’s my attempt at a 100-word story from that list:
“So, Susan, what’s your day job?”
Susan shifted in her bar stool.
“I work at the pharmacy on the corner of 10th and Bishop.”
“You’re a checkout girl?”
“No, actually—“ She felt his hand on her leg and frowned.
“Oh, come on, you know you want it.”
Susan forced a smile and handed the man his glass.
“A drink first?”
The man eagerly gulped the last of his vodka. Susan watched his face fall as he got down from his seat and waddled away like a constipated goose.
“I’m the pharmacist actually,” she said, tossing the empty laxative sachet.
Don’t forget, starting next Wednesday, April 1, I’ll be posting a 100-word story for each day of the April A-to-Z Blogging Challenge. See the banner on the right sidebar for more details.
Have a great weekend!
HAHAHA! That was great. Bet that guy will think twice next time he hits on a woman.
Thanks, Patricia. Yes–at least learn some manners first. 🙂
Great story, Colin. I love it.
I hope you have a wonderful weekend. 🙂
Thank you, Lilac–I’m glad you liked it. Have yourself a great weekend, too! 🙂
Thanks, Colin! 🙂
This A to Z Blogging Challenge is intriguing. Not sure I have the time, but am considering it. Maybe I’ll do something short, like legal definitions A-Z.
I’m talking to myself on YOUR blog LOL. I bit the bullet and signed up for the A to Z challenge. Wish me luck. 🙂
It’s contageous–the talking to oneself, that is. 🙂 Ooo! Cool!! I look forward to your A-to-Z posts, Dena. 😀
