Yeah Write Micro-stories: Attrition

opentable.com

 To the forwarded reservation confirmation she replied, 
“PENNED IN!!!”.

“Me, too. So excited.”

(Note: Exclamation marks missing from my response.)


The rub? A date is a date. Knowing this, she’ll make me explain why I’ve been avoiding her. That’s a tough one.

    Ugh, just break up with her instead of stringing her along!

    He is probably wondering how much it will cost to possibly get lucky. ;) Or maybe he is wondering if she is going to bore him to death with a 3 hour story that could be told in 5 minutes because it doesn't require all of the additional details. :)

    See, this time you got two winky dudes.

      Actually, this scenario can play out two ways, two winky dude! It could be two girlfriends and one doesn't want to continue the friendship. OR it could be a girl and a guy. Therefore no winkies needed ;-)!
