A hundred words …

for Friday Fictioneers.

As a rule, Willamena’s completely normal, but occasionally she has a moment. She falls silent, stares skyward, makes a ‘whooo’ sound then predicts something!

‘“Whoooo, Galloping Gal will win the 3.40 at Aintree”

“Whooo, Virginia’s having a baby”. 

“Whooo, your phone’s going to ring”. 

She’s always right, though I think she cheated on the last one and sneakily dialled my number on hers! 

The other morning she fell silent, stared skyward, went ‘whooo’, then … nothing! I didn’t question it.

That afternoon I received a get-well balloon … from Willamena! Ooh-err!

I’m pleased to report I’m feeling a lot better now.

    Dear Keith,

    Whooooo, a clever story. It would be disconcerting to receive get well wishes before the illness. Whoooo!

    Shalom,

    Rochelle

    Ha ha, oh the ongoing adventures of being friends with a clairvoyant. Fun story, Keith 🙂

    Could be useful, like getting a doctor’s appointment before being sick so you can see a GP before it’s too late! Clever take Keith.

    I’m not sure if Whilhemina has a gift or a curse.
    Whooooo … lol

      I think it probably works both ways! Thanks so much, Isadora.

    Phew. Im relieved. The silence after the last Whoo had me worried. Fun story – very quirky.

      How do think I felt?!!! Glad you enjoyed it, thanks, Margaret.
