Random Drabble Challenge Word: Settled
Sentence Prompt: This is the last sentence I will be writing and I am going to stop mid — sent…
A drabble is a 100-word, short fictional story. It is all about exploring, creating and experimenting.
“This is the last sentence I will be writing, and I am going to stop mid-sent…”
“Wait, what? Have you gone mad, Claire?” Gerald expressed his astonishment.
“What’s there to be surprised about? I’m not going to the Himalayas to get settled or wear a religious garment,” she said, rolling her eyes.
“But you can’t leave a script hanging in midair like an unsuspected body.”
“Gerald, why are you overreacting? Take a chill pill.”
“Moreover, leave something for our audience. The suspense will keep them hooked, trust me. It’s genius!”
“I can see that, Mrs. Einstein,” he said, laughing.
This story is inspired by Nancy Oglesby's random drabble challenge and its associated word “settled.”
