or less!
My good sistren Abeni over at And still I rise challenged me to write a 60 word story. Something about my posts being always long. Well then! Here we go!
---------------------------
The jingle of keys.
Click!
"Meow?"
"Shhhhhhhh stupid cat!"
A pause.
Silence followed by a soft continuous creaking.
An animal screams!
"Wha de? ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
The sound of tumbling.
Bruggadown!
"Uhhhhhhh"
"What's going on down there?"
"Nothing Dear."
Lights go on.
"Oh Michael why must you always trip over the cat on the stairs when you come home drunk?"
--------------------
There you have it, excuse me while I stand here chilling in my b-boy stance. And I'm ghost!
