Millie's Message

 


Millie's Message


By Craig Wilson


The smoke clears. I am at a school dance.

I ask some random teacher why I am here.

They remind me I am here as a chaperone.

I shrug. I walk around and find some kids.

They tell me they love reading my stories.

I assume the kids mean my dream stories.

A girl with glasses, Millie, soon talks to me.

Thus, Millie claims she’s a fan of my work.

Millie tells me I need to talk to my daughter.

I’m confused. I don’t think I have a daughter.

The phone goes off, and I soon wake up.


The End


The above story is a loose adaptation of a dream I had. If there is anything you would like to ask, feel free to leave a comment, and thank you for reading.
