Short Writing : A Short Story

“Look, all we’ve been eating on this trip is chicken and pasta, exactly what we have at home almost every night. Don’t you want to try something new and authentic?”

Sophia: omg! He just texted, Brock – o – lee just texted, he’s my life’s work! He’s like …. the Ketut to my Rhonda, just look at how god – dam – sexy, he is! (does some weird slurpy thing with her mouth)

"I like pasta, and I got to travel to another country. This was one of the best things I could have done." Shayla remarked with a relaxed smile when interviewed.

“ Ok, Girls, now that we’re here, we need to stay together. There’s a lot of people and you can easily get lost in this big place. We’re first going to go pay for our flight and then use the restroom before boarding. Our flight leaves in half an hour. That should give us enough time.”

A shadow passed over his smug expression. He slid his hips from the desk and his flinty eyes hardened to thin slits. “You’re lying.”

If traffic cooperates, should only take about four hours.” She nods her head, placing another candy circle in her mouth. “And after that?” she asks. “Gotta get this load to Santa Fe tomorrow. After that, wherever they send me, I suppose. You plan on sticking around for a bit, or is this

As we make our way to the front of the hotel my mother goes to the tour guide,

She’s been waiting for an hour or two and she’s already becoming impatient, this is a time sensitive issue after all. They have to leave eventually, if not tonight, at some point in the morning. If not, this entire ordeal will be a lot more complicated. That’s something she’d like to avoid, it’s important to keep this as clean cut and simple as possible.

“Okay, I will be there momentarily. You go on and set up. I will buy some food and then come to paint myself. And for the last time, what is in the package?”

Once upon a time in a land not from here, there lived a girl. She was very poor and had no family left; for they had all died of disease. She lived in the forest far far away from everybody else. Since the town was so far away from her cottage she never went there unless she really needed something.

Annette arrived at midday, we were happy to see each other again. We decided to go the movies. We say the premier of “Batman Returns”, the line at the movie theater was extremely long, but we were so excited that the next day we will be flying to Mexico that the
