CJ might be
coming over tomorrow. Also it may rain elephants and cars. I hope for
the former and not the latter. Not many people would have insurance
for it. Anyway onto the flash fiction!
A Young Girl
And Her Time Machine
Crap. This is
the 50th time I used my time machine and I still can't
come up with anything good to say. Every time I try to ask my crush
out for a date I goof up and I use my time machine to make sure I
avoid an embarrassing refusal to whatever stupid thing I said to him.
Yeah all my “genius” to make a time machine and I can't even ask
a boy out. Good job Amanda. Can make a time machine, but can't date.
One time I traveled back a week to try and figure something out and I
still couldn't come up with something good.
You know what
screw it! I'll just ask him straight. It doesn't matter if I'm not
all the popular and he's the most popular. It doesn't matter if
there's probably another popular girl around the corner with
something better to say. I won't flinch. I'll take the refusal. I'll
use time machine to save him the embarrassment of having been asked
out by such a dorky girl as myself but I'll risk the embarrassment
for just the slightest change of having a date with him!
I tried...and
he said yes! He likes me! Guess I don't need the time machine
anymore! Can't think of much else to use it for anyway. I'll toss it
in the trash tomorrow. It doesn't matter anyways, I'm going to be the
most popular girl in school! Aha, to Diana and her little group who
said I could never be popular. I got the most popular boy, so in
their face!
