Doing A Favor

Yesterday, the Oldest Daughter sent me a Flash Fiction 55 that she wanted me to post. Unfortunately, I didn't get the text message or e-mail till today. So here it is, better late than never.....

********************

She opened her eyes slowly. She could hear the soft rasp and squeak of his bow on the violin from behind closed doors. She turned to conference with the alarm clock on the bedside table. 6 AM. Saturday. Why was he practicing this early? She pulled the covers over her head. He needed the practice.
 
********************

Can't you just hear that violin screeching?

Yes, I can! Will this continue in another Flash Fiction 55?

I totally dig flash fiction 55's. Might have to work on my own. This one was cool. I sympathize with her ears!

awwww..that must be such a earful. You know when I used to play the piano and have to practice, I always pray I will not be a nuisance to anyone...which is hard, you know. Great 55!


Mine is here
Have you a TRULY BLESSED SUNDAY and a WONDERFUL THANKSGIVING!!!

This is "The Oldest" Thank's for all of the lovely comments. To g-man, it was nice to break out my creative writing brain and play! I did a lot of creative writing as an undergraduate.
Cheers!

... I've lived through this. After two years, I told my daughter it wasn't her thing.

I never regretted it :)
