The Walk

Flashku

This is for Cendrine's Flashku Challenge, which you can read more about here.

I’m using my story, The Road Least Traveled, for written inspiration.

~*~~*~~*~

Bob and Maria walked down the road

They held each other's hand.

Maria had some news for Bob that he would like—just three words.

First, they would enjoy the woods in all their autumnal glory.

Then they would play hide and seek among the trees.

Together, they always had fun.

He doesn’t have to worry because when they arrive, She’ll tell him happily, “I’m not pregnant.”

    Oh, wasn't subscribed, but now I am. The old, "are we" "are we not" - can be a massive relief to find out it's not true haha! This was great!

    I liked how you used your own story on Vocal for inspiration.
