Five people had already died trying to find that cursed bag, that’s what the thugs at my door told me. They appeared, or rather, slammed past my door with their size eleven boots. I was just eating my dinner, or rather trying to. ”I don’t know what bag you’re on about,’ I said, digging aContinue reading “Lucky Seven . . .”

Favourite World
Questions Do You Prefer Salty Foods or Sweet Foods? I prefer sweet food rather than savoury. I do pick up biscuits, or cake rather than crisps. Although I do like sweet chilli crisps. I like cheesecake, and treacle pudding with lots of ambrosia custard. Would you rather be in a place where it is excessivelyContinue reading “Favourite World”
A Call from the Past
A rotary phone, pink, the same colour as the one I used as a child. Mum used to spend hours, with the handset to her ear. A flurry of sisters, she could be on the phone for hours. There is something about the way the numbers revolve around the centre, clicking and whirring into position.Continue reading “A Call from the Past”
An Intentional Affair
INTENTIONAL Intentional, not an accident as he had told the police. Hiding in the shadows, her husband’s killer watched him die. She was sure of it. Her mum, dad, said it was her job. She was naturally untrusting, and sometimes it was just an accident. Richard was the only one of a handful of peopleContinue reading “An Intentional Affair”
Mistake
https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ I would like to think I am good at admitting my mistakes. Nobody is perfect, and we all make mistakes (although don’t tell my husband that) He will always tell me when I have done something wrong, but then I will tell him too. We shouldn’t always agree with our significant other. If weContinue reading “Mistake”

Nervous
”Nervous? You shouldn’t be.” Sally’s husband passed her some toast, which she moved away. Food was the last thing she wanted right now. This night was important to her, but she wasn’t sure how capable of finding a job at her age. ”This is my first interview in years. What if they don’t like me.”Continue reading “Nervous”
Coffee Break
Sandman’s Q and A Just a few posers from Sandman. 1. If going to a coffee shop, what is your choice of beverage? I prefer to have a coffee, but then I drink coffee most of the time. Sometimes I will have a latte if I am feeling adventurous. 2. Do you prefer a cooked breakfastContinue reading “Coffee Break”
A Conscious Stream
”How on earth did you manage that?” To be honest, Sally wasn’t sure, but there was tomato ketchup all over the carpet, and glass everywhere. The last thing she was sure of was the blinding headache before she lost grip of the bottle. ”Another headache?” It was better to be honest, but she didn’t wantContinue reading “A Conscious Stream”

A nobody, with a name nobody spoke to. Most lunch breaks she spent in the school library, her nose behind the pages of her favourite book. Katie. Adventures in which nobody could hurt her. One day she would create a world of her own. One where she would control the ending. Books were piled toContinue reading “https://fivedotoh.com/2022/04/09/fowc-with-fandango-nobody/”
