Broken Record

My brother’s like a broken record.  He tells me about how we used to bike around the neighborhood pretending we were race car drivers, and how we’d gained multiple knee scrapes from turning the curb too fast. He’ll tell me this story twice, thrice, or even four times in a row, and laugh about the good ol’ days. I laugh with him, because though he doesn’t remember that he’s already told me this story for the fourth time in a row, he does remember the fun we had. My brother’s like a broken record, but I don’t mind one bit.

Drabble: Stick's New World

Stick gazed at what was happening. He had appeared atop a green hill. All around him, flowers spontaneously appeared out of thin air. A sun swirled into being in the blue sky and started radiating sunbeams. Clouds began hovering above him. Two black squiggly birds flew over him. Wonderful.

Suddenly, the sun vanished! White space was in its stead. The whiteness devoured the clouds, sky, birds, hills and flowers, and it was about to devour him! He wanted to get away! But the white devourer was upon him!

Miriam erased the stick figure. That drawing was terrible! She’d start over.
