The typically unfashionable girl who always wore stripes, but today wore a solid light blue blouse, asked her grumpy father why mom would not be dropped off by her colonge reeking, fakely handsome boss.
After putting on a marginally protective, overly worn oven mitt, the big smiling little girl pulled a perfectly reheated pizza out of a dirty oven and demanded they recycle the box.

Have to do some thinking about this one, which I appreciate. But I’m trying to figure out which box needs to be recycled?

“Stipes”? I think you mean “stripes.” Evocative imagery.

Stipes or stripes? If you are referring to her as being “thin as a stalk or reed” I could eventually accept the usage of stipes. Are you intent upon sending us to the dictionary again? I still enjoy your two sentences!

Thank You Dr. Mary. Those stripes and my missing “r” appreciate it.

You know I love challenges, so when I couldn’t figure out the “new” word used to describe her clothing, I thought it must have been the R. This is an intriguing post. Thank you again for your creativity.

I bet THAT got to him. And good for her! They are boh very sweet people in their own ways. somehow, they cross paths and are thrown into a drama that lasts but a mili second of life but an energenic intens exchange between two people. An interesting tiny footnote in their lives but very very cool. You give me a short film clip that’s complete! My favorite Dual Superman. It touched me.
Anyway .. Jeeze this isn’t about YOU its about ME! That last piece I posted was strange and very funny at least to me … it is fucking hilarious. But i figured ‘d get low numbers because it IS strange.
I was right. Only 2.
Wull .. A side of you likes nice numbers. It means people accept what you do. In a way they are taking you in by breath or something like that. A sharing.
While the number was small and one of the likes came from you. Thought i’d let you know that if the fact that it was YOU who clicked ‘like’ for this very strange piece is just as good as higher numbers. To me it validated the piece.
So i’say thank you very much. And I’m so pleased that you enjoyed it. That Donald trump … He’ll

There’s something magical about short fiction that elucidates (at the risk of sounding pompous..) a story much beyond the actual words used, like you cheated and wrote it twice as long 🙂

It’s funny that I see comments mentioning a spelling error (?) which I read over without noticing, until I read their comment. What does that say about the reader (s) ❓Just asking 😇
