This week’s flash fiction is the continuing story of Brittany,Harold, and Victor. The story began two weeks ago in the piece titled Chance Meeting.

As they waited for a table at Wolfgang Puck’s Brittany wrapped her arms around Harold’s waist. “You surprised me with this trip.”
“That was the plan,” said Harold.
Brittany leaned in to kiss him, but midway she froze. Her face became ashen.
“What’s wrong Britt,” said Harold?
Brittany’s voice dropped to a whisper, “Victor is in front of the souvenir shop.”
“Impossible, Victor doesn’t…,” something sharp pressed against Harold’s back.
Victor grinned at Brittany and in a calm tone said to Harold, “We’re going to walk to your car. If you try anything, I’ll kill you here and now.”
That escalated quickly. Poor Harold.
Thanks for reading.
I guess more than the trip was a surprise!

Harold should’ve known better.
Sounds likely to be a one-way trip.
Depending on the photo prompt it will be continued next week.
Last trip for Harold?
Check back for the continuing story….next week…maybe…
Apparently there’s a little back story here. Let’s hope there’s a few more chapters. 🙂
The back story is in the title chance meeting. Thanks for reading.
I would risk the meeting for a chance to dine at Wolfgang Pucks! 😉 Sounds lovely if you have the back bone…
Sorry to say, but I would never eat there agaiin.
Hmmm . . . interesting little flash. It seems more is going on than you are revealing to the reader. I do wish the story was a bit more self-contained, with an actual beginning, middle and end. This seems to have mostly just the middle. Still, its written fairly well. Keep playing along. (Yes, I read that you are referring to characters from previous stories. 🙂 )
All my best,

Thanks for the honest review. We grow from our mistakes.
Oooppss. They need to be more sneaky, me thinks.
Victor’s a little nuts. Thanks for reading.
I love a good cliff hanger.
