I’ve been thinking.
Hmmm?
About us
What about us?
I don’t think it’s working
What?
You and me. I need some space
Oh… right
What?
You got it
Huh? Just like that?
Yep.
This week’s Trifextra Weekend Challenge was ‘dialogue’ 33 word limit. Sometimes that’s all it takes. 😦
About Sandra
I used to cruise the French waterways with my husband four or five months a year, and wrote fiction and poetry. Now I live on the beautiful Dorset coast, enjoying the luxury of being able to have a cat, cultivating an extensive garden and getting involved in the community. I still write fiction, but only when the spirit moves me - which isn't as often as before. I love animals, F1 motor racing, French bread and my husband, though not necessarily in that order.

I love how you created understanding between two people in so few words. It sounds as though that may be one of the few times for those two.

I’ve heard the line myself too. And it’s usually been mutual, well it was once I got the drift of where the conversation was going. 😦

“I’ve been thinking” is always a loaded phrase, fraught with peril – great take on the prompt! 🙂

It’s funny that isn’t it? How we hang on to things long beyond their natural termination date. Thanks for dropping by.
