There goes Eileen again. Don’t look. Don’t look
up. Don’t you dare look up. Off to tennis doubles with your new best friend,
Eileen? Don’t care. Couldn’t care less. Break a leg, Eileen.

What a humorous approach! This was great, Kymm!
ReplyDeleteGlad you enjoyed it. Thanks, Jody!
DeleteHaha! Great last line. Something tells me she means it literally. ;) I love the peek inside her brain. Good one.
ReplyDeleteNo, no, it's just one of those set phrases you say, good luck and all that. lol
DeleteWhy am I not surprised that you like to peek inside brains???
Glad you laughed, and thanks for the love, Ivy!
Loved the way you captured those jealous thoughts.
ReplyDeleteJealous? Who's jealous?
DeleteThanks for the love, Mike!
Hahahahah! Love this. Obviously tennis with that white-on-white getup.
ReplyDeleteAt first I thought she might be the jilted one, walking the dog.
DeleteAppreciate the laugh, and thanks for the love, Mel!
LOL...hopefully Eileen does break one for dumping her friend. Love the jealous green monster coming out! LOL
ReplyDeleteThanks for the lol's, Kathy!
DeleteLoved the "doubles" theme. Friendships/relationships can swing back and forth all the time, can't they? You captured the sense of betrayal very well, Kymm!
ReplyDeleteYeah, relationships rarely travel a straight, unbroken line, do they?
DeleteThanks for the love and support, Tom!
The dialogue with herself is so wonderfully written! I especially love the repeat" Don't look up. Don't you dare look up." Well done, Kymm :)))
ReplyDeleteSo glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the love, Jo-Anne!
DeleteBFF gone awry! :) Funny girly story.
ReplyDeleteTotally! Glad you found it amusing. Thank you, Shawn!
DeleteBrilliant take.
ReplyDeleteYou are very kind, Aesop, thank you!
DeleteGreat writing
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ruby!
DeleteI noticed that reflection of the woman looking into the window. Good take on the prompt.
ReplyDeleteBut you were looking from the inside out, no? lol Thank you, Tina!
DeleteThis made me giggle, well written :)
ReplyDeleteAlly
Oh, I so love the sound of a giggle. Thank you, Ally!
DeleteBreak both legs, Eileen! And Kymm-please take extra special care of your hands. I thrive on what you write down:)
ReplyDeleteHahaha I will never be crossing you, Valerie, that's for sure!! Both legs, huh?
DeleteYou take care of your fingers, too, lady! < 3
You put me right in her head. You nailed that photo, Kymm.
ReplyDeleteNot sure that's the best place to be... lol Thank you so much, Ted!
DeleteSo glad I'm not the only one hearing them. Thanks for the chuckle, Renada!
ReplyDeleteIt's as if you're in my head! Whoa!
ReplyDeleteHaha ikr?
DeleteThanks, Tina!
Now I want to know what happened to them!
ReplyDeleteFunny you should ask. http://guapola.wordpress.com/2014/01/28/trifecta-gladiators/
Delete*wink wink, nudge nudge*
¡Gracias, Guapo!
You have captured the 'studiously ignoring' perfectly LM x
ReplyDeleteJust what I was going for : )
DeleteThank you, Lyssa!
Lovely story. Great use and build of the repeat, "Don't look...' Really enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you enjoyed it, Sarah, thank you!
Delete(& good to see you.)
Ah, yes. This is great. Been there. So much work, pretending not to care.
ReplyDeleteYou're so right, it is hard work. I should know! lol
DeleteThank you, Kelly!
Haha! Poor girl. ;)
ReplyDeleteGlad you got a chuckle. Thanks, Jess!
DeleteAh,so sad when close relationships become strained or worse break!I could feel her pain and sense of betrayal in those"I couldn't care less" asides!A great take on the prompt Kymm-loved how you incorporated both the figures in the picture:-)
ReplyDeleteGlad you could relate, Atreyee. Thanks for the love!
Delete*Great* voice here! It made me look at the photo a little bit differently - I swear I can see the forced nonchalance in the girl's face now. Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHaha I thought it was just me that saw it! Thank you so much, Christine!
DeleteLove this! So much depth in these few words. I don't like that Eileen one bit. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, thanks for not liking Eileen!!! And thanks for the love, Suzanne!
DeleteAwesome take on this, Kymm. The tone is perfect and the ironic break a leg at the end is superb. Loved it!
ReplyDeleteYou are too kind. Thanks for the love, Momo!
DeleteThis is funny. Nice monologue, Kymm.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you found it funny. Thank you, Pratibha!
DeleteGreat take on the prompt and use of the reflection. Really captures human nature!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you think so. Thank you, MTO!
Deletehaha I love this.
ReplyDeleteLike hearing the chuckle. Thanks for the love, Draug!
DeleteNice! I like your use of humour in this piece.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Alicia!
DeleteCome on, Eileen.
ReplyDeleteHahahahahahahaha!!!
DeleteHow long were you waiting to post that?
You're a riot, Tri.
Still laughing as I scroll down for a comment, apparently I'm not the only one. No matter how old we are, we are 14 forever. They are probably both lousy tennis players and need each other. lol
ReplyDeleteHahaha Undoubtedly they are and do. 14 forever, yes.
DeleteThanks for the laughter, Ann!
