Is it already Sunday? The Sunday after Thanksgiving? Where the heck did November go????!!!! This week’s Six is from Siren’s Opus, my short story. We’re getting close to my favorite part. . . Ben has convinced Amy to drive to the outskirts of town and they’re now on a two-lane road, open stretches interrupted with the occasional stop light.
“Go through the light,” Ben said as she was getting ready to downshift.
“But I won’t make it – it’s already yellow.”
“You’ll make it.” He grabbed her knee and pushed down, flooring the gas. The car responded as if driven by him, leaping in speed, and with his other hand, he slammed the horn.
The yellow light turned red.
And for your viewing pleasure, here’s not one, but two pictures of ‘Ben’. Which one do you think suits his character so far?

I wish he would distract her some more 🙂
Uh-oh – that sounds like trouble! Great six. 🙂
I think she’s made the wrong choice.
How scary. Fun six.
He sounds a little bossy. :-). Nice six.
He sounds a little bossy. Nice six. 🙂
Love this story! I definitely see Ben as the bottom pic.
Thank you, Rhonda. 🙂 That means a lot to me. Bottom pic as Ben, got it. I kind of see that, too. I just couldn’t resist the pic of Gerard. Sigh.
This guy sounds dangerous! Nice six, Karysa.
And he just might be. . . wink, wink.
Uh oh, I have a feeling the serious consequences of her choice are about to start showing up – very effective six!
Thanks, Veronica. 🙂
