This week the ‘Prompt Nights’ challenge offers us the choice of writing either poetry or prose, with a theme that tips its hat to April Fools’ Day. So to celebrate this day of fun and frivolity, I decided to “focus” on a bit of frivolous prose.
Place: A city street
Time: April Fools’ Day
Conversation:
Friend: “Wow! Did you see that?”
Sandra: “I’ll say. I’m salivating even as we speak.
Friend: Oooooh, me too. Makes me feel hungry all over.
Sandra: I know what you mean. That box of chocolates must have held at least 10 pounds.”
Friend: “The girl who gets that will be over the moon.”
Sandra: “Mmmmm. That much chocolate candy would definitely make me one very happy lady.”
Friend: “Huh? – Wait – What?”
Sandra: “What do you mean, what?”
Friend: “What do you mean? I’m talking about that drop-dead gorgeous hunk who just passed us carrying the box of chocolates, you dope.”
Sandra: “Oh, was there somebody carrying the chocolates?”

Could only be written by a true chocoholic!

Thank you so much.
Bahaha 😀 such sparkling wit and humor in your play Sandra. I truly enjoyed reading this one. Beautifully executed. Thank you so much for participating at Prompt Nights.
Lots of love,
Sanaa
I’m so glad you enjoyed it. I enjoyed writing it very much.
Priorities, right. Chocolate first!
Tsk – chocolates get my vote all the time too – far less complicated and often tastier 😉
I could see it – especially if we’re talking dark chocolate truffles. Mmm.
Bwahahaha! I completely understand the temporary blindness. I, too, lose all sense of perspective when it comes to good chocolate. 😀
