Mommy, do we really have to go and visit Aunt Annie again tonight?
Why dear, do you not like your Aunt?
I like her, it’s just that she smells kind of funny.
Her job is handling tobacco all day long making cigarettes dear, so that’s
probably why you think she smells funny.
No it’s not that kind of a smell. Daddy smells like cigarettes but she
has a different smell to her.
Mommy thought hard about it. Of course, now I know what you’re referring
to. Your aunt comes home every Friday night and makes herself a garlic
sandwich.
This is a post for a Flash Fiction Challenge over at Carrot Ranch. If you or someone you know likes to read or write flash fiction please stop by and join in on the fun and many challenges. Each week on Wednesdays +Charli Mills provides us with a new flash fiction challenge. This weeks prompt is to write a story about a nutty aunt in 99 words (no more, no less).
