November Drabble: NO THANK YOU
It's now Thanksgiving season, but let's mix this up a little. Give me a drabble incorporating the phrase "No thank you" in some way. Break it up. Use it all at once. Whatever. Just put "No" "Thank" and "You" in there somewhere. Wanna win? Here are the rules: Exactly 100 words using conventional spelling, grammar, and punctuation. Prose only. Poetry will be mocked, cussed, and set afire. I'll pick a winner sometime around December 2.
Lack of Interest
"Are you sure?" he whines as he chases after me. I hasten my pace, desperate to get back to my car.
"Yes, Devin, I am very sure."
"But Maggie, it's a Valentine's dance! You can't go to a Valentine's dance without a date!"
Now I whip around and stare down his snooty little face. "And where did you get the idea I wanted to go to that dance in the first place?"
He quivers as he spits out a forlorn "Please?"
I laugh. "Absolutely not. No thank you, not interested, have a good day, bye" And I'm out the door.
