Had fun with CJ today. Better than not having fun. Or having an
invasion of zombies. Anyway onto the flash fiction!
Refund From The Wishing Well
“Mr. Magic
Wishing Well I want a refund!” One little boy shouted into a well
during a hot summer's day.
“Umm...it
doesn't work like that,” Though the spirit of the Magic Wishing
Well hardly spoke to humans it responded to this unique statement.
“Well I paid
you a whole quarter that I got for my tooth from the tooth fairy and
you didn't give me my wish so I want my money back!”
“Um, you
asked for dinosaur best friend that could do all your homework. I
couldn't grant that.”
“Yeah, so I
want a refund.”
“Well, I
can't give you a refund.”
“Why not?”
“I can't.”
“Dad get's a
refund at the hardware store, I should get a refund here.”
“I'm not a
hardware store.”
“Do I need to
talk to your manager?”
“What!? I
don't have a manager!”
“Funny,
that's what Dad always says when he wants a refund.”
“I'm not a
hardware store, and I don't have a manager!”
“Then I'll
sue!”
“You can't
sue a wishing well kid!”
“That always
works on TV.”
“Just go home
kid.”
“No. It hurt
to get my tooth pulled out. So either give me my wish or give me a
refund.”
“Wishing
wells can't give refunds. Offerings in wells are a one way ticket!
It's a rule!”
“I'm not
leaving until I get a refund, and I'm going to file a complaint!”
“You can't
file a complaint! That's impossible!”
“I'm still
not leaving!”
“Fine, well
it's not possible for me to give you a refund I guess I have no
choice...”
The little boy then got his wish for a dinosaur best friend that
could do all his homework.
