Priorities / He's Back
Two 50-word Stories from the Archive of January 2023
Priorities
What makes you think she’s the one for you? Is it the legs, the provocative shorts? Maybe the long hair? Or is it the seductive pose, revealing the inner thigh?

He’s Back
He’s standing outside the cafe window, peeking in at her from behind his newspaper. She sees him, but pretends she doesn’t. She saw him yesterday, too. Why is he following her? She’s just having coffee with Hakeem. What’s his problem?
Finally, she glares at him and mouths, “Go away, Dad!”
It's the boots! and LOL to "Go away, Dad!”
The second one was funny. 🤣
