Saturday Centus time again! Nice short prompt this week which is nicely tucked up in the body of the story (bold & italic). Once again the rule is 100 words or less excluding the prompt, it’s amazing what you can convey in 100 words – have a look at some of the other entries!
I needed to do this. After coming so far I had to see him, I needed explanations. Just a hint as to why he dips in and out of my life the way he does. That day in the park was typical, he suddenly appears from nowhere and just as quickly disappears. Well this time I’m on his territory, there’ll be no disappearing act – he has nowhere to go. He’s already home.That's why it meant so much to make this journey. I take a big breath in and knock on the door. And wait, my heart pounding out of my chest in expectation.
I love mystery and intrigue. You've got them both here. Nice job!
ReplyDeleteThought provoking...wonder how she knew where he was when he was so evasive? Why was he so come and go...? More questions...
ReplyDeleteWhat a great start to this weeks Centus! Needless to say,I want to know more!
ReplyDeleteI'm wanting to find out what was said, and what the ultimate result is!
ReplyDeleteThis is very interesting and intriguing. Makes me want this to be a 200 word one lol. Great Centus.

It's a rainy, gray day here, I have my playlist going, my coffee is steaming, and I'm reading my favorite meme.
Life has some fun moments.
