Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)

This is the Six Sentence Story.

Denise invites all  to join in with her weekly writing…. exercise? practice, jamboree?

She provides a new prompt word each week. We write a story employing/using/otherwise referencing the word. And we limit ourselfs to six sentences. (Unlimited semicolons are permitted. Can I get an Amen!)

Habe sie funzen

( Writers note. That video at the bottom? Came across it earlier this week. As I watched and listened, I was all, ‘Damn! I could write a Six on this alone.’  I didn’t quite find the story to match the vid. But it, (the video), was so cool, I figured I just had to share the funzen.)

Prompt word:

Material

“Did Sister Cletus really tell her she was not suited to the Order?” Sister Margaret Ryan, glancing at the dining room door, held the red dish towel with both hands and made a pass to her right, a Bed, Bath and Beyond Verónica as Sister Bernadine stood at the sink washing the dinner dishes; the window over the sink provided a subtle reflection of amusement in the large woman’s eyes.

“Tell me what?” Sister Cletus asked as she stepped into the kitchen with the last of the dinnerware.

“Send someone famous away… from the convent, a postulate, back in the early eighties,” Sister Margaret turned, her mulata once again an ordinary dishtowel.

“Back then, the parish priests knew that if any girls expressed an interest in the Order they could arrange for them to spend a weekend here at St. Dominiques, at the time I was the one to help them explore their spiritual nature.”

“So, you knew right away this girl was not meant to be a nun?” looking past the young nun, Sister Cletus’ pale blue eyes went to the woman standing at the sink, whose eyes glowed like twin stars in her ebony reflection.

” Oh no, I’m afraid Miss Ciccione was much, too much a material girl.”
