My ZAPFic50 below is a short story told in exactly 50 words. Created by @felt.buzz, I love this challenge and participate when time is available. Often, I'll prepare a Zapfic50 story based on one of @mariannewest's Freewrite prompts. For today, I chose: Day 1715: 5 Minute Freewrite: Sunday - Prompt: miserable.
This microfiction story is about adapting to situations we may be placed in realizing the circumstances are not permanent. It's about taking responsibility for our actions, tolerance of others, and the ability not to take situations too seriously. From my screenshot at WORDCOUNTER.net, you can see that I used exactly 50 words to create my ZapFic.
Here is my story.
My flight's boarding caught me rushing through the terminal.
Foolish to think extra time wasn't required to deal with heavy traffic.
After securing my luggage, I hesitantly joined my row companions.
From my airport trip miscalculation to their incessant talking, it didn't take long for a migraine to weigh in.
