Day 64: 5 Minute Freewrite- Prompt: pill

Day 64: 5 Minute Freewrite Challenge initiated by @mariannewest. Prompt: pill

It was the morning of Christmas Eve and Bubba was on his way to his grandma's house. Through the woods he walked and stopped at the river to get a bucket of fresh water for his grandma. Before placing the lid on top he thought he saw a fish in his bucket of water, but it was just a reflection from one of the pine trees. Bubba had a panic attack as he recalled the time he ate fish, and got a fish bone lodged in his throat for 3 days. Ever since that incident he wasn't able to swallow a pill. The only way he could get a pill down him was by crushing it up and letting it dissolve in his mouth before he could swallow it down. He tried putting a crushed pill in pudding once but that made him gag. He began to panic more when he thought of grandma's figgy pudding that she made every year for Christmas. He didn't want to hurt her feelings, so he was going to have to force that pudding down his throat somehow. He panicked even more when he thought of how he was going to swallow her home-made candy that he choked on the year before.

It was getting late and grandma was worried when Bubba didn't show up, so she went to look for him. You will never believe in a million years what happened.

Singing..."GRANDMA GOT RUN OVER BY A REINDEER!"

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO @mariannewest AND TO ALL OF THE FREEWRITERS!
