Let Us Play "Olivia" - A 50-Word Story for @jayna

in #fiftywords6 years ago (edited)

Hi, fifty-worders and readers.

You’ve just learned you can summon this girl who can grant you a wish. You just have to perform an easy but odd trick, something involving a pocketknife, a pair of scissors or a stone—you name it—; this was my idea for a fifty-word story, to begin with. Now, the question I asked myself then was, is someone actually as stupid as to want this girl to appear? Then I thought about the possibilities; “Let Us Play ‘Olivia’” presents us with one of them.

This is my second entry into @jayna's #fiftywords contest. The prompt for this week is “pop.”

I hope you can read my entry, and hopefully, you’ll leave a comment.

Let Us Play “Olivia”

“Olivia will pop in for a visit. Turn the scissors thrice in your hand and they’ll point to the room where she is. She’ll grant a wish for a life.”
— If it works, promise we won’t leave this room.
— One… two… three.
— OK. Nothing.
I’m here. Tell me your wish.

Olivia makes me feel intrigued. Greetings, @marlyncabrera.

Hi, @snowy-june! Thanks for the comment☻

Scary! Wondering about what wishes would somebody make in such a spooky situation. Great piece of writing

I'd certainly ask her to keep everyone alive, but I guess she was not going to allow it.

Thanks for reading, @francisaponte25! ☻

Be careful what you wish for. I think those cats have become a bad influence for you :)
Let's get rid of them!
There's a saying in English: 3 may keep a secret if two of them are dead. Playing Olivia may be good for that. :)

My cats are little angels, @hlezama. The humans around are the real problem XD

Thanks for stopping by!

This is very intriguing, @marlyncabrera! It seems spooky and mysterious.

Intriguing works for me! Thanks a lot, @jayna

Scary and suspenseful.... What happens next? Find out in part II next week... Go on!

Well, I like challenges. I'll write the sequel using next prompt. Thanks for reading, @ablaze :D
