Yet another peep into 55-word
fiction
Kiss
If
you kiss her, you get the money you wanted
I
don’t like it and in public
Take
it or leave it.
She
may not like.
She
will say nothing and is readily available.
Why
do you insist?
So
you will not ask me again
OK
I need money
He
produced a frog to kiss.
Midnight scare
It was past midnight. Trriing, triing.. Wife on phone from Chennai
“Arun, why are you awake so late? “
“Sarah is coming. I am struggling to avoid her.”
“Sarah, who? Don’t open the door.”
“Can’t, she is too big to stop.”
“Have you met her earlier?”
No, her landfall is expected in
half hour”
The chase
With wind blowing
his hair, Nitin chased at hectic speed to retrieve what Vipul had snatched from
him. But the gap never seemed to close with both maintaining the same speed.
Unrelenting Nitin rode on till he finally grabbed Vipul’s collar to demand the
chocolate bar back. The music and carousel had by then stopped
Soliciting
They were young pretty girls clad in jeans and T-shirts.
When I stared, one of them said “Just 200 rupees Sir. You will be happy for the visit”
I was hesitant wondering at the open soliciting.
“Come, I am free now.”
My wife nudged and said “You need a haircut. Try, it is a new salon”

The
mango trick
After
the magician’s rope walk and wriggling out of a narrow ring, the dumbfounded audience
clapped. Commencing mango trick he placed the seed under a basket under watchful
eyes. After some mumbo jumbo, he was about to lift the basket, when his young
son shouted, ” Appa, you have left the mango here with me”
Ha ha ha....good ones really! Enjoyed.
