Task #6: A message from the past


03.08 p.m. August 15, 2015** Edward Hospital, Naperville IL**

Roger is speaking with his butler Charles.

Roger: Excuse me Charles, could you briefly explain me why I'm now laying on a bed in this hospital?

Charles: Yes, sir. I would love to. However, I couldn't really promise that it will be a brief story.

Roger: Okey then. We have enough time. Please, go ahead,.

Charles: Good sir. You know our neighbors, correct?

Roger: Mr Adam and his wife. The strange ones?

Charles:Exactly sir. You know that sometimes they travel for longer and when they arrive back hope they have quarrels.
Well, last time the quarrel lasted longer than usual. That's why... [Continue the story].


Your task guys, is to finish the story that Charles has just started.

Feel free to spice it up with more details about Charles and Roger (if you think it's worth doing it). What I would be paying a real attention to of course is what happened with Mr. Adam and his wife after they got back home and why is Roger in that Naperville's hospital.

Challenge #6 completed kind sir: Driveway Drama

Hii, I think you forgot to change the title to this task and the deadline. It's thrusday right? (: I really like how many different ways this one could go!

I double checked - it is fine as I see.

Ah, I think she means the deadline says 'Monday, October 5', and should be 'Thursday, October 5'. :)

Yes that's what I meant :) And I meant the title above the photo of the hospital. It says "Task #6: A message from the past". The name of the task in the post's title it's fine. Also, here's my entry: https://steemit.com/writing/@alemars16/second-creative-writing-challenge-task-6-unfortunate-turn-of-events. Looking forward to the next one :)

You are right, I've fixed it some time ago! Thank you for paying attention!
