The Story That Was Not Very Good (Freewrite Story)

in #freewrite6 years ago (edited)

5 Minute Freewrite task conceived by @mariannewest and @improv

Sunday Prompt: Bones kindly provided by @mariannewest

I'm diving straight in today. Usually I'm waiting for an idea before I make my leap but today I just want to start and see what happens.

I already wrote a story, a few days ago, called Skeletons In The Closet. A dead good story too. No pun intended (lie).

I could follow it up, but I don't want to ruin the mystery of the original. Originally the story was going to reveal a hidden truth, but I left it a mystery.

Ok, enough with the waffle, which it is. I'm sure you're here for a story.

One day there was a loose bone lying on the table. It was originally a leg of a chicken but it had been munched through by a human.

The rest of the chicken was yet to be eaten. That is because someone forgot to buy a bottle of Fanta. Everyone agreed that a fresh grilled chicken tastes much better with some Fanta.

Five minutes later, the Fanta has arrived, which means the rest of the chicken is soon to be consumed. Every last bit gnawed through until there is just bones.

And that was that. Nothing exciting. Just some very happy fed people and some bones in a bag ready for the garbage chute.

Sorry that there is no real adventure and no great laughs. Just a nice family gathering and good food

There is a knock at the door. It is Mrs Smith.

“This story is not very good,” said Mrs Smith. “You should have followed up the one about me. The one called Skeletons In The Closet.”

“Do you sure you really want the world to know your skeletons, Mrs Smith?” I asked. "Personally, I'd rather not know. I've just eaten.”

This is the story that Mrs Smith wanted a sequel for. Maybe one day I'll reveal her skeletons.

It must be quite a secret that you don't want to think about it right after eating.

.....nothing is down on paper, so it is still open to change or interpretation.... which makes me realise that it would be nice to do another WeWrite.
