Title: Forever is an Awfully Long Time
Word Count: 96
Note: Written for the
all_unwritten prompt, "Forever is an awfully long time."
After watching the movie, one lone quote from the film stuck in Jeanne's mind:
"For-ev-er, for-ev-er, for-ev-er..."
It rang in her mind like a bad memory for the week thereafter, like a skipping CD or a stuck video. She'd find herself mouthing the words during especially powerful bouts of contemplation, like when she did her math homework, or when she was completing perfectly mindless tasks, like putting away the dishes. It was annoying really.
So, it was with much deliberation one day that she realized, out loud no less, that "Forever is an awfully long time."
