a story

i have spent the last week and a bit sitting at the World Vision stand encouraging people to sponsor children. it's been rather boring a lot of the time... so it inspired this story.


Boredom rained down on her. She couldn't think of anything worse to be doing.
"Oh Lord please me this stop" she mumbled.
Many people walked past but no one even noticed her. she didn't like not talking. she didn't like being alone. She didn't like being stuck with her own thoughts. all these combined was making time pass ever so slowly. the day seemed endless.

there are so many better things to be doing. no one could put a prince on this and pay me for it. she thought about her brother and their last conversation. it had been a long time since they had talked so freely.

as time dragged its feet she sunk lower in her seat. oh how she yearned to be outside. her surroundings had become familiar. she new much of what to expect. not much changed these days. she liked excitement and this was far from it.


it's not finished. just to clarify, it's inspired by my time in the marketplace, but not about it.
