Flash Fiction Friday


Stifling a yawn I wondered why I had me agreed to accompany Zara to the musical in the first place. For the last two hours I had fought to stay awake, out of courtesy to her, but felt I was fighting a losing battle, or at least I had been.
Suddenly the most handsome man I had ever seen appeared on stage and, seemingly, stared straight at me, his piercing eyes penetrating deep in to my soul. I was so transfixed by his beauty I didn't notice the look in Zara's eyes as she smiled, and nodded her head knowingly towards him.

Planted, hook, line, and sinker. This is a stunning, cleverly disguised set up if I ever saw one. Wonderful twist, Julez! You woke us all up with this flash. Very clever, indeed. You are such a pro, even tho you are not feeling well, you sstill write to entertain us. Feel better. xo

I thought he was going to be disappointed until I read more into your last line. Suspense awaits as what happens next. Great Flash in so few words.

I thought it was one thing and it ended up being something else, at the end. That was game-changing. Nice!

This is awesome! I want to know more about her little plan and from her gaze I can tell she knows this performer. I sooo want to know more of what happens. Love your details as I felt like I was there watching it all unfold.
