“Don’t shout at me like that Daniel.
I said don’t shout at me!
No I didn’t meet him Daniel.
I told you I did not meet him. How many more times do I have to say it?
Daniel, I’m not lying. It’s no good going on and on at me. I’m not listening to you any more.
Don’t shove me. I’ve warned you. Get your hands off me now Daniel. I’m not going to tell you again.
How dare you hit me you bastard!
See how you like it”.
See how you like it”.
"Oh God Daniel, I'm sorry.
Daniel, speak to me, don't just lie there.
Dan, it's not funny. Open your eyes.
Dan
Dan
Daaaaan”

hopefully she'll get a not-guilty due to self defense! You write good short stories! Fun to read them!
ReplyDeleteI wonder! Thanks for dropping by Kathe. It's 2am here and I didn't expect any visitors so soon after posting it - you made me jump!
Deletequite a melee with unexpected ending. ( the first "to" in the post should read "do'"please correct)
ReplyDeleteDuly corrected! Thanks for visiting.
DeleteOh wow! I bet she didn't see that happening when she gave him a hit.
ReplyDeletebetty
He didn't, and to make it worse she broke her favourite vase!
DeleteThat got way out of hand! Yeah, he pushed her too far. I like the word "melee".
ReplyDeleteI've always liked that word and it's the first time I've found a use for it!
DeleteOh, that escalated quickly. I hope Dan isn't dead!
