Still We Try - Persuading Parker | #33 ZapFic50 Friday | (6/17/22) - Prompt: heart
In this Week's prompt "heart", I thought I'd delve into the psyche of parents who often attempt to persuade their children to eat more balanced meals. I know it's a task sometimes,but still we try.
@felt.buzz and the Freewriters Community bring you a new ZapFic50 Friday challenge each week that tests our ability to construct as near complete a story as we can using exactly 50 words. The challenge starts on Fridays and runs through the weekend. It's a great writing opportunity using various prompts.
As required, I leave below my wordcounter screenshot showing the 50-word count for my #33 ZapFic50 Friday story:
Below is my story:
"Mom, my teacher said fruits are heart healthy. Is that true?"
"Yes. Why?"
"But you said vegetables are heart healthy. Which is it?
"Both."
"OK. Since my heart is already healthy, I'll stick with milk. Tony The Tiger says it's heart healthy with Frosted Flakes."
Laughter wasn't an immediate option.
