Written for Esther’s “Can You Tell A Story In” –
exactly 73 words using the seven prompt words
shown below. In exactly 73 words, here’s my flash.
exclusive, switch, rave, lip, apology, verse, and sweater
The exclusive club required a password – one verse from a random song. I fumbled it, earning a gruff “switch lines” from the bouncer. My friend shot me a look, then smoothed things over with a quick apology. The rave was pulsing with energy. Someone complimented my sweater; I tried responding but even outside the music drowned my words. She leaned in closer to read my lips, and to my delight, she kissed me!

I didn’t know Kiss covered this. I still like The Ronettes version, but what a find this is. Thanks for introducing me to something new, Nancy.

My pleasure, Lois. You can’t beat the original but, as I explained to Jim, I wanted a male’s reaction to the surprise kiss and this version was a good substitute. Thanks very much.

Neither did I but since I wanted to have a guy’s reaction to the kiss, it seemed like a good choice. Thanks, Jim.
