Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)
Ok. here I am at Wednesday Night. I have the ‘story’, but I’ve come to believe that I shouldn’t bet on what I hit publish on, at least until Thursday morning. For the moment I have what I consider to be the most fun ‘story’ I can come up with…at least for a Wednesday night.
Which, by the way, if you’re just joining us for the first time, this is zoe’s Six Sentence Story. It’s a bloghop that challenges us to write a story of six (and only six) sentences …the prompt word for this week is ‘suspect’.
“Who do you suspect?” I asked, hoping the cigarette smoke would mask the expression of doubt that I suspected was beginning to show on my face.
“Why the suspect, of course!” Try as she might, her face betrayed a certain suspicion of my interest.
“I knew that, however, your logic is rather suspect,” I smiled and pulled the blankets over my head, blocking out the cheery sunlight, totally covering my face, more than anything else, I didn’t want her to suspect.
“Well, for a minute there, I was doubting your confidence in me,” I suspected she would say that and pulled the revolver from under my pillow.

Typical married couple then?
alas…often all too true
How could you want to shoot someone with whom you had such clever repartee?
…with a cigarette dangling from your lips, an arched eyebrow and (slightly) sardonic smile?
You surprised me! I really did not suspect it would have a twist! I think they deserve each other.
very cool (I suspect I agree…about the two)
You are great with the “serial” stories. Nice! I think it’s your inner-scott making an appearance. In the literary form, of course. :)
lol… yeah, like god forbid he gets loose in the ‘real’ world!
Good one, I suspected nothing less 😊
thank you
