It's Microfiction Monday over at stony river. We are invited to write a short, short story based on a select picture in 140 characters (including punctuation and spacing).
He tore away at her worn shield. Anita knew that anger cloaked his face. Her back dented the shade. A 2:45 call from her lover would ring.
Thanks for reading!

Love this from just that picture. Awesome job.
How quickly you set the scene for this one. I want to know more.

Oh S.Mom, I hope she can back into that shade far enough to hide just those few more minutes until her lover can rescue her.
Soooooo very good! :)

Oh yes, I like you Cezanne's that show up at the right. I showed a Cézanne original in the Lautrec Museum in Albi, France, on my blog last Wednesday.

As usual very well done.

Great, suspenseful Microfiction today! I love it. Good for a soap opera!

Can she wait that long? Can we? :)
I love it as usual!! :)
wonderful drama
so much in so few words
Intriguing! Hope your week is off to a great start! :>
This made me stop and think... Intriguing!
I love that this story really made me look at the photo. Nicely done.
Could one say all good things come to those who wait. Great Microfiction
Lots and lots of images there. I think you need to expand on it some more!
"Her back dented the shade." Whoa! Great imagery! Love the fresh writing!

Amazing thriller in so few words! Quite a feat! Brava!
I totally see the crinkled shade. Whew. Good job.
Oooh - deep. Glad you didn't have jury duty otherwise we might not have this to read!
Countdowns are almost very effective--in fiction!
Nice tension.
Have a great week.
I want to know more ... very well done! :o)
He was late and he just knew the headmaster would keep him after school.
But did he call? That's an answer we all like to know...good MF :)
Drama and suspense! I like it.
Yikes! The tension mounts . . .
Wow, who knew suspense could build in so few words? Nicely done... and um, she will be okay, right?
Great! I love how you did this by asking yourself "what is going on inside the building".
This one is so scandalous!
You are really really good at being descriptive in your writing!
Bravo. I may have said this before, but it's true, I love your mind!!
Now you have my attention! You have a gift for setting a scene Kelly!
By the way, I have been playing around with Picnik, the photoshop-like program. It can make just about any picture look good! But thanks for the compliments on my photography skills!
Excellent job! Nothing like leaving us on the edge of our seats! What happened? What happened?
Hope it all worked out!
Wow, so different than what I was thinking! :-) I immediately thought of Back to the Future and the line about "SAVE THE CLOCK TOWER!" LOL! You always inspire me to think/dig deeper though. Thanks Kelly, have a great week!

This is very good...would not have thought of a mystery, although the building does give one a creepy feeling...
