The Waiting

The morning had started like any other but now the whole room was full. @felt.buzz was sitting on a chair scrolling through his phone looking for photos for what? He didn't know......yet.

@snook was distressed she had a building to do but she couldn't go on until she knew. @simgirl had fixed her sock and just wanted to rock but again she was as still as a mouse.

Even @brisby was quite, a thing unheard of, while a squirrel was in the window.

@F3nix had come out of his basement holding his brush just waiting for something to paint.

Poor @marcoriccardi was in the corner on his yoga mat muttering to himself. He too had things to do but couldn't move.

The air was still as all watched the lady that tugged at their heart laying on the sofa hand over her face that refused to say a word. Not one word today had come from her mouth and the crew was starting to worry. What would they do?

@Jeezzle was in the corner pacing. Around and around he went. He had things to do, was a very busy man tho no one knew just why.

Then all of a sudden the door flung open on this foggy morning time. First came @whatisnew on feet soft as fog, he wound himself around the tablet and looked back toward the door with an impatient glace.

The door had remained open, the fog rolling in .........but no one had yet to move......it started out softly the noise everyone heard. Footsteps that shook the ground.

When in through the door The Captain @deaconlee appeared with a hearty laugh and HUGE Hello! He has finally come home from the sea.

Still, no one spoke, waiting still.

The clock struck 10 and The Lady @mariannewest rose up from the couch with care. She checked her bag full of scary things and pulled out this day..............Nothing!

The shock of all was a groan in the room, even Marco had stopped mumbling.

When low and behold The lady pick up a pillow and raised it above her head.

She quickly took out her phone and proceeded to send the missive: Day 68: 5 Minute Freewrite - Prompt: pillow

All scrabbled to their writing places breathing much easier now that they new for one more day their world would go on.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I hope you have had a chuckle or two! This was so much fun writing.

I did go over my 5 minutes or ten minutes as I used two but not much longer.

Come join us if you dare!

Happy Writing!
