Welcome to a new excerpt of Rainbow Catcher for the Weekend Writing Warrior and Snippet Sunday.
Now let's go back to our story.
Summary of previous episodes: Clarissa is coughing and wanted to watch Everett Cooper on TV but Jason refused, she is due to get her rainbow the next day but she seems scared, to make her feel better Jason leave the TV on. Clarissa tried to explain about rainbows, she is a big fan of Everett Cooper but Jason is not too sure about it. Clarissa complained about her dialophone but Jason needs to go to work. Before completely leaving he is thinking about getting her her rainbow. We flashed back to the meeting Jason had with a rainbow seller at the black market. Jason left Clarissa's room to go to work. Jason was talking to his boss about the rainbow coming the next day. Jason prepared the money for the rainbow in a sport bag and went to the hospital. The rainbow seller arrived for the delivery.
“Oh no, they are to disgusting,” Clarissa answered hiding under the blanket playfully once more.
“I need to go back to the garage, kid, think carefully, don’t rush something like that, I’ll see you tonight,” Markus said.
Jason looked at him going out.
“Do you want to watch TV? The emission will start soon,” he said.
Clarissa nodded, looking at him. Something was clearly wrong, he normally complained that TV killed her brain’s cells faster than anything else.

ReplyDeleteNothing like getting that sinking suspicion that something just isn't right...hope it's just a case of overactive paranoia!

I think he's right—TV does kill brain cells. ;-)

ReplyDeleteChildren an always tell, can't they? Excellent snippet, no one's fooling her that there isn't something amiss here.
ReplyDeleteWhat emission? You've got me wondering. And I still wonder what these rainbows actually are!
ReplyDeleteSomehow I don't think Jason is going to take Markus' advice...
ReplyDeleteUh oh, red flag on his part then. I wonder what he's brewing up in his head.
ReplyDeleteUh oh! What's wrong with Jason??
