Jack never had a deceitful thought, or deceitful intentions, but if he did, he certainly didn’t get a chance to act on them. Evie caught on well before he could…
Each week Rochelle Wisoff-Fields posts a pic to write a 100 word story about.
This week’s topic is about a humorous and thoughtful subject. Sort of like playing the children’s game of “I spy.”
The Crosses of Jack’s Mind
Jack, why are you out on the balcony?
I just realized how beautiful it is out here, Evelyn.
Just?
I think I’ll move some furniture out here.
Jack, you don’t fool me for a minute.
Why, Evie, what do you mean?
Next you’ll be setting up your telescope out here.
Well, it had crossed my mind.
And maybe it crossed your mind that you might give a little look-see at that cute blonde who moved in next door, whose bedroom just happens to be facing here.
Why, I swear, Evie, the thought never crossed my mind…
Randy Mazie
I believe in his innocence about as much as Evie does.
You women always stick together. Ha.
The guy said it never crossed his mind.
Give him a break.
Randy
If I was dating or married to him I would absolutely believe him!
Yup, I am that bad.
uh-oh.
No worries I am comfortably single now.
I”m stickin’ with Dawn! 😀
I didn’t know that the two of you were together… Randy
You said that we women stick together…
oh, yeah, right. 😉
FF Crossover – Draliman’s waiting with a cold shower. 😀 Evie has an ally.
I haven’t read Draliman yet but it’s cool if we both are into crossing over…. Randy
It probably didn’t cross his mind because it never, ever left it. At least he didn’t take the binoculars out with him… or did he?
Boy, do you have us guys pegged.
Randy
Dear Randy,
I can hear the thoughts crossing Evie’s mind about now. Jerk, I mean Jack, had better duck.
Shalom,
Rochelle
Then, I think, they better both cross themselves because it sounds like they’re both going to be ducking soon.
Isn’t that just ducky. Randy
Well that certainly gave me a little chuckle.
a little chuckle is good.
However a guffaw is better…
I’ll try harder next week.
Randy
Very funny.
Evie didn’t think so….
Randy
(Thanks)
Naughty Jack. Evie’s wise to his ways though.
I suspect she knows him way too well
Ha, Evie’s a smart lady, I wonder how long that telescope would last in the porch before some “accident” happened to it.
Great story 🙂
ha. You’re so right – or some accident to Jack
*on the porch
or under the porch, too.
(I know you were correcting your preposition – while I was suggesting other positions.
I’m glad Evie is keeping an eye on Jack. If left to his own devices, I’m sure he’d be trouble! Nice one.
Aren’t we all? 😉
For some reason, “slap on the face” came across my mind. 🙂
lol
Very funny… but who’s laughing? Miss missy.
Randy
Who? Me? 🙂
I think that Evie has lost some trust in Jack.. 🙂
Ya think?
You could be right….
Hilarious, Randy. 😀 I’ll bet every wife in that neighborhood knows about that blond. Their husbands don’t stand a chance. Word gets around. Well done. 🙂 — Suzanne
hahahaha.
Maybe they’ll run her out of town.
i’m standing by jack. it’s evie that is giving him the idea.
good for you. Now when I yell, “Duck …
Evie knows him too well. A lovely marital portrait. 🙂
and with a stroke of the brush, she will extract blood from the canvas…
Neat dialogue – snappy but still believable. Great stuff!
snap. Thank you.
The cute blonde needs to pull down her window blind. A cheeky story. I’m with Evie – never trust a man with a telescope.

Oh my, poor Jack. How is his fault, when Evie was the first to mention that blonde. I mean, these days you can’t even play around with your telescope, without being accused of some evil plan.
Yeah, I don’t get it, either. She started.
