Oh Jeff...

For Raymond G. Taylor's "Oh Jeff flash fiction challenge"

By KomalPublished about a year ago 1 min read
Detail from Roy Lichtenstein, I love you but, 1964, private collection

Oh, Jeff... I love you too...

but...

You ate my leftovers again....

That wasn’t just spaghetti—it was a symbol of trust!

How can I build a future with someone

who raids the fridge like a raccoon at midnight?

I’ve been patient, Jeff.

The pizza....

The cheesecake....

Even my secret stash of chocolate!

But this?

This was the last meatball.

Komal

I write poems and stories that hit the feels.

When I’m not lost in my own plots, I’m either daydreaming about the next big idea or just winging life with a grin.

    She knew Jeff had a soft spot for food. She certainly has high expectations of Jeff. She just wants Jeff to fail.
