This year, for the A to Z Blogging Challenge, I'm writing Micro Fiction (or Flash Fiction) that is 100 words or less around a set list of words provided by my BFF (Kemari Howell). Today's letter is "K", so today K is for Kangaroo.
K is for Kangaroo
“This better be good, Kane” I grumbled into my phone—half asleep.
“Dude, you’re never going to believe where I am. Guess.”
“My brain isn’t working yet. Why are you whispering?”
“I’m hiding… in a bathroom… at the zoo.”
“That’s awesome. I’m
going back to…”
“Don’t hang up! There’s a kangaroo in here.”
“What?”
“A kangaroo! I think he’s washing his hands.” He giggled.
“Whatever.” I hung up on him. A minute later, my phone beeped. I pulled up the text—a photo—a freaking kangaroo. I buried my head under a pillow and tossed the phone across the room.
