“Doesn’t that mean ‘Black House’?”
“Probably.”
“It’s beige.”
“Maybe it means the mold,” Pierce said, kicking a rock. “I don’t know who named it. How long we gonna wait here?”
“Until he comes out,” Karen said. “Dude has my lighter. I want it back.”
“You serious?” Pierce said. “We’re stalking a celebrity over a lighter.”
“That and he’s gonna marry me,” she said.
“No.”
“Yes.”
“No. We’re leaving.” He grabbed her hand.
The knife came out, pointed at his crotch.
“‘Kay.” He backed off. “We wait.”
Hopefully the gendarmerie had taken his call seriously. She got like this sometimes.

Karen sounds a little stalkerish. Nice story.

I wish every stalker had someone as wise as this at least trying to make sense.

I really like this. I think you have a lot of talent if you can construct a story from mostly dialog. I keep wanting to try that but I never seem to lean that way. Maybe I can do it next week.

Thanks. The funny thing is, MOST of my 100-words are mostly dialogue. I can’t write them any other way. 🙂

A good one – both characters living and breathing.

Haha. I enjoyed this one. Pierce has got himself landed in a tough spot: friend vs. reason. There’s no easy way out of that one.

She’s a scary one and can be glad if her friend manages to prevent her from committing a crime. Great dialogue and great take.
