Welcome to Week-end Writing Warrior and Snippet Sunday.
It's my week 52. Which means I have been doing Week-end Writing Warrior and Snippet Sunday for a full year!
What should we do to celebrate? Any ideas to implement in my post for next week?
I'm giving free copies of Demon and Fairy ebook in the format of your choice to anyone who ask!
Here are my 8 sentences, the weirdness continues.
“I’ll
get some clothes ready for your shower, you’re covered of sand,”
she said with a trembling voice before leaving the room.
“You
don’t have to….” Seti started but she was gone before he could
finish his sentence.
He
took a sip of juice. It was warm, just the way he liked it, she had
probably taken it out of the fridge earlier.
“Where
have you been all that time? You keep going to the beach to fight, is
that it?” his father asked putting the newspaper down.
Seti
didn’t answer, he knew something was wrong in his mother behaviour,
and he expected to be admonished by his father as soon as he entered
the room.
Answer to last week's comments:
Why and when Seti's mother was acting like that before is one of the mystery of this novel.
Yeah, Seti's father is the cool type but he has a lot on his mind.
You might figure out what is wrong but I don't think anyone is going to tell you, you'll have to see for yourself. This family has a communication problem.

ReplyDeleteI wish I had been in on your story from the beginning. How many weeks has it run?
Congratulations on your first anniversary with WWW! This is my 2nd week participating.
I'm probably going to mangle this French, as I haven't used it in years (sadly). "Ma mere etait nee en la Suisse."
Good insight into the dynamics of the family. Unfortunately Seti learned his communication skills from them. :(
ReplyDeleteWas his father correct in his assumption? Is Seti a fighter?
ReplyDeleteI wonder what he sees in his mother's behavior to worry him? Curious.
ReplyDeletePoor Seti. Somehow I don't think there's any good answer for that question...
ReplyDeleteHmm, is he going to be sent off somewhere? You have me wondering Linda!
ReplyDeleteInteresting family dynamics poor Seti has to put up with. He's one of my favorites every week!
ReplyDeleteWhy does his father assume he's been fighting? Is that what demons normally do?
ReplyDeleteIt's fun seeing mighty beings in such a domestic setting... I like the feel of your scene.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree that this family has a communication problem! Seti needs to break the pattern.
ReplyDeleteVery curious about the family interaction and his mother's behavior. This does make the reader want to know more.
ReplyDeleteIn the line "she had probably took it out", I would have used the word "taken" instead of took; or just leave the word had out.
