‘What are you doing, Morgan?’
‘Hiding.’
‘My bad. I…’
‘Did you say, “my bad”?’
‘Sorry. Why are you hiding?’
‘I was at the store…’
‘Shop?’
‘We’re in America. This guy asked the cashier if he had small arms. I said that was a bit rude and he gave me a look and showed me this gun.’
‘I don’t blame him.’
‘He looked pretty upset. I thought I’d better hide.’
‘And that’s why you bought the Doritos and 100 candles.’
‘If he cuts the power we won’t be in the dark.’
‘Any these toilet rolls?’
‘He was very scary, Logan.’
This piece of fluff was written in response to this week’s #carrotranch prompt
May 21, 2020, prompt: In 99 words (no more, no less), write a story about 100 candles. What do they light, and why? Think about contrast or symbolism. Are the candles large, small, or stars in the night? Go where the prompt leads!
A true Geoffle piece!
