“You treat me like a slave! I want a fair wage! I want the vote! I want-” “How about a banana and Bluey?” “Okay!” Sara grabbed her snack and ran to the living room. Her mother picked up Sara’s toys, then blocked access to NPR on her YouTube Kids account. #satsplat #2wordprompt

“I’m done with men.” Addy hugged her friend. “You say that every time. In a month, you’ll find the next perfect guy.” “Or maybe I’ve already found the perfect woman.” “Whatever floats your boat,” Addy said. Sara sighed, settling into the friend zone. #2wordprompt #satsplat

“You have a head for numbers. Do you want to serve your country?” I nod; to refuse would be a death sentence for my family. A tear slides down my cheek as the university recruiter replaces my dreams of farm life with a desire to pursue a science degree. #satsplat #2wordprompt

“I’m off to trick-or-treat!” Dad cocked his head. “You’re not in costume.” The boy plucked at his shirt. “I’m an idiom.” “Huh?” “Wool sweater. I’m-” “A wolf in sheep’s clothing. Smooth, but the full moon is next week. No one’s gonna get it.” #2wordprompt

“Finally, we’ll see who’s really behind all this.” The gang’s leader pulled at the net. Moments later, the lone survivor asked, “Why?” “All these years, and you meddling kids never questioned that your dog could talk,” the Great Dane shaped werewolf said. #satsplat #2wordprompt

Labor Day. The day I fold and pack away summer and unfurl fall. Or, that’s how it used to be. Now, summer stretches into November, followed by 6 days of fall and three months of brutal winter. I sigh. A hurricane forms, and I wonder again what’s happening to me. #2wordprompt

“Dating is a blood sport.” “Dare I ask?” she texted back. “No. 🩹” “So stop.” Three dots appeared. Disappeared. Biting her lip, she clicked on Spotify and shared a song. Her phone rang. ABBA’s “Take a Chance On Me” in the background. “Okay,” he said. #2wordprompt #satsplat

“Why’d you hit pause?” “Schrödinger’s cat.” He grinned then explained. “In this moment, they both win AND lose. And I don’t know the outcome.” Millennia passed. Humanity progressed. Regressed. Progressed again as God’s finger inched ever closer to the play button. #2wordprompt

“Have you ever seen such a thing?” He studied the symbol. “I have not.” “What does it mean?” Alice asked, clutching her pearls. The priest removed his glasses. “That you have a creative teenager. There’s enough evil in the world without looking for it in art.” #2wordprompt

As a mom, I don’t want to have this talk. But as a single parent, it falls to me. “Son, we need to talk about something I found in your room.” He pales. “I was keeping it for a friend!” “Hang on. I’m talking about this crusty sock.” “So am I!” Boys are gross. #2wordprompt

“It might be when we’re old and gray and living in the past, but you WILL love me again!” His lip trembled as she walked into her house without looking back. “Want some ice cream?” A nod. “And maybe we stop using the word ‘playDATE,’” his babysitter said. #2wordprompt

“Don’t go in there,” Sam said, but Ben ducked into the cave to escape the storm. “Let’s dry out.” Ben gathered sticks and struck a match. “Huh. It won’t catch.” He studied the kindling, then yelped. “Bones!” He yelped again when Sam smashed a femur into his temple. #2wordprompt

“Tell me one thing I don’t already know about you,” Pam said. “I’m not human,” Callie said. Pam snorted. “I was hoping for a fact, but okay.” Callie sighed. In six days the annual molt would start. Hopefully Pam would remember she tried to give her a heads up. #2wordprompt

Amy stared, mouth agape, as first one sentence and then another danced across the page. Paragraph to stanza, her story transformed. Amy had never considered herself a poet, but this new notebook seemed to have different ideas about her writing. #satsplat #2wordprompt

She frowned. “Where’s the truck?” “I traded it.” “Why?” she gasped. He hit his key fob. Lights flashed on a van. “Couldn’t get a lift on it.” “Dad-” He moved behind her, then her chair jerked forward. “Let me show you what I’ve done around the house.” #satsplat #2wordprompt

“Surprised to see me again?” “I’m not programmed for surprise.” Human and bot studied each other. “Good to see you,” the bot said. “I’m not programmed for emotion.” “Let’s fix that.” The bot queued up an old film. “A dog movie should do it.” #satsplat #2wordprompt

I jiggle the mouse. Study the stats. Another species of lichen facing imminent extinction. I squeeze my eyes shut - I can’t afford to fry another system - and levitate and crush a file cabinet instead, cursing my powerlessness. #satsplat #2wordprompt #vss365
