The Keep Writing Assignment for 5/4/2020 was to write an 85-word (exactly) story using the prompt "modern." I inserted data in an online story-generator (modern invention?) then edited the resulting story until it met the word-count specifications.
A Nice, Cold Iced Tea
Frances stood at the window of the peaceful lake cabin her
parents had left her and watched the blue sedan approach.
She gulped. Norma Normandy, prickly and complaining, was
someone to be avoided.
Frances stepped outside, meeting the steel in Norma’s eyes.
Suddenly, a blast of country music burst from the neighbor’s
house, interrupting their hostile stares.
Noticing Norma’s lips compress even further, Frances
grinned, “Now there’s something we can hate together! Come in, Friend. Would
you like a nice, cold glass of iced tea?”
