Today I’m adding my one hundred words to the fun over at My Blog Can Beat Up Your Blog. This week’s inspiration was provided by the classic Beatles song “Revolution”. This story picks up where I last left off with Karen. If you missed it, check it out here.
Revolution
“Thank
you again Henry.”
“Please
stop Karen,” he whispered as he brushed the damp curls out of her eyes. “I
would do anything for you.”
She
leaned her head on his chest.
“I
need you to do something for me though,” he said.
She
pulled away, suddenly wary.
“Get
dressed,” he said. “It isn’t easy to be a gentleman with only a thin cotton
bathrobe separating us.”
Sister
Mary Michael’s lectures about virtue and her mother’s dire warnings about men
thundered in her ears. Without looking away from Henry, Karen stepped back and
let her robe fall to the floor.
Oh snap, Karen! really? Look at one showing some confidence and sass!
ReplyDeleteThe first line - is there supposed to be a comma after enough? Or is it supposed to be "I Can't thank enough Henry"....reads weird...
anyway, you know I'm a Karen fanboi. I like her action here. Not because its sexy but because its assertive.
Oops, there was an accidental enough in there! Took it out and added an adjective elsewhere to keep it at 100 words.
ReplyDeleteNicely played - loved the way she removed the problem!
ReplyDeleteWhat would Sister Mary Michael say? She certainly met her dilemma head on.
