“Is it about me?”

She pauses.
“How long is it?”

Author's Note
This first appeared in Benjamin Krause's Twenty20 micro lit journal and I would like to share it in Micro Cafe.
The aim of Ben's journal was to publish stories 20 words or fewer. He cited a Hemingway story of 6 words as the ideal form of super short fiction.
"For sale, baby shoes, never worn."
It certainly does have a beginning, middle and end. Pretty fascinating and powerful.

Heh...funny.
Oh, I've been in situations like this.
You gotta love a gal who's got her priorities straight.
I laughed. I know who that poem is about . . . I know four or five people who that poem is about.
Faved.
Thanks for reading, everyone. Makes me laugh to hear others have crossed paths with this type of personality.
