The views, as the agent had described, were stunning. Words had been bandied about.
Words like “solidly constructed”, “modern liveability”, “sweeping
city and rural views” and the kitchen, an entertainer’s delight ”.
The neighbours were a mile away; “assured privacy” and “reclusive
charm”.
Different from the inner city living, he had said, but plenty
of room for visitors.
Sure, a forty mile drive to the country is all they want to
do on the weekend, she muttered to herself.
A dollop of dishwashing liquid in the gravy ought to
convince him of the need to be closer to civilization, she thought.
Another year at the Fictioneer's prompt is about to come to an end, so time to have some fun this week, no darkness maybe some wickedness :-)

Oh what is wrong with her? This is MY dream!!! ;-)
ReplyDeleteHow much harm can a drop of dishwashing liquid do? Other than taste bad...
I was totally sold on the place.
But not her dream I'll let yoi know once it is on the market. :-) She doesn't want to kill him, just make hime sick enough to move back to civilization. Thanks for reading and commenting Dale.
DeleteFor some reason this reminded me of the old TV show Green Acres (yeah, I'm showing my age). Cute story. I enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments Chris, I am glad you like the story.
DeleteDear Subroto,
ReplyDeleteObviously this is not a happy woman. Forty miles isn't that bad of a drive. Dish soap in the gravy doesn't sound appetizing. Eeew.
Shalom,
Rochelle
PS Well written.
Well you know Rochelle, some people are meant to be city dwellers. Thank you for your comments I am glad you liked it.
DeleteI wonder if it helps... Maybe just telling him her mind might be better than to spice up the gravy.
ReplyDeleteWhat have an actual conversation? Now that's an idea. Thanks for your comments Björn.
DeleteSomehow I think it may take more than a drop of washing up liquid. Nice try though.
ReplyDeleteYou make do with what you have :-) Thanks for your comments Sandra
DeleteShe doesn't need to worry. The city will build out to them in a few years. I think I'd taste the soap before I ate enough to make me sick. Well done, Subroto. --- Suzanne
ReplyDeleteRat poison would have worked better I think but I went with the view :-)
DeleteThanks for your comments Suzanne I am glad you liked it.
I believe Mr Stephen King would happily pick up from here...
ReplyDeleteThanks Umashankar but still a long way to go to be in that exalted company :-)
