He had to see her again.
He procured daffodils and sweets and went to her house and knocked at her door.
A stranger opened, and he was naked from the waist up.
He dropped the flowers and the sweets and fainted.
‘Call the ambulance!’ the stranger cried. ‘Quick sister quick!’

Maybe this says more about me than your story but there’s a distinct whiff of something going on between sister and brother
We will never know. :))
Been a while.
Short and witty.
Liked that beautiful image.
Interesting points come up with a few lines. Good it makes one think. He-sister. This is strange. How can a he become a sister? Please explain.
The sister is inside. It’s obvious to me.
Sorry, now I understand. Had to let my feminine side come through. It is hard when you think with testosterone running through your veins.
The plot is old but the words, fresh. Nice!
I totally got your words and it left a smile on my face…bravo!! but alas, poor young boy jumping to conclusions at first sight…
It happens all the time I think.
That would be a shock. Oh the foibles of dating and not knowing all the siblings.
Quite so!
Ha ha ha…
Very cute. But if I may, A writer’s question: If there are only 50 words to play with, why toss 6 of them away overusing ‘and’?
I understand what you’re saying.
But ‘and’ links things up and helps with the flow, I would say. Using segregated sentences makes everything a bit clumsy. I don’t always overuse ‘and’ though. Check my previous stories. 😉
as usual, an enjoyable read that made me laugh!
Trap your laughter in an envelope or in a bottle and send it to me. 🙂
haha how i wish i could! I have a very merry laughter, I do believe 🙂
Boy! oh boy!

That is the sum of life.
I think this one might be my favorite yet. But who answers the door naked from the waist up? And I love your use of “procured.” 🙂
Her brother!
Oh, brother!
Good one!
That was unexpected!
