Saturday Centus #27

It's Saturday Centus again - in a nutshell, Jenny Matlock gives us a prompt from either herself or a guest submitter and then we have to write 100 or words less related to the prompt (the prompt doesn't count toward the 100 words)  Then link it up to her blog.  It's open until the following Saturday, so that means you have all week to participate by either reading or writing.  http://jennymatlock.blogspot.com/search/label/Saturday%20Centus  

Prompt in bold ;-)

Dear Marcy,

I hope you are doing well.  I just wanted to drop you a note and say, see you soon.

                                                                     Misty.

"So, you and Misty back together again".

"It will be great to see her", Marcy said.

"Yeah, there's an article in the newspaper you'll find interesting", as Janice began to read,  "It was the 11th Anniversary of the robbery of Greedy Bank.  After all these years, the money has never been found". 

"I wonder where it is" Marcy giggled as she heard the clanging of the door. "Just a few more days and I'm out of here".

Two women who can actually keep a secret? Unheard of!

Great job...what will they do with the money?

And Greedy Bank - aren't they ALL greedy?

Malisa said...

Hmmm. Do they need a third? I could use some money right now! :) Very nice post.

Oh is this a duo of bank robbers? Misty and Marcy? who is Janice supposed to be; the jail guard who was talking to Marcy who was in jail? sorry it was kind of hard to discern what was going on at first and everything is still so unclear lol

Good post, 100 words are not very many and to make a story out of it takes talent! Yes, she did make the little dolls on Alphabe Thursday!
