Cat on the Wall

Flash Fiction, Three Line Tales 1 Minute

“Launching my next attempt at jumping across the water to reach the rat infested ship – may the force be with me. Catpain out.”

*SPLASH*

Miles away a video was being uploaded on the servers of a very popular social media website almost instantaneously, bearing the caption, ‘Cat falls to death by drowning trying to catch a ship. LOL.’

*SOME ARBITRARY TIME LATER*

“My ninth and last attempt at flushing out the rats and clearing out the ship, WILL NOT be hampered by a body of water. May the force be with me as I decide to walk over the wall to a better vantage point. Catpain over and out.”

This is a response to Sonya’s challenge, 3 Line Tales, where we write 3 lines about the picture above.

P.S. Catpain is not a typo – rather an attempt at making a pun with a Cat Captain.

Vanakkam. Vandhanam. Namashkar. Swagatham. Hey there! In case you haven’t realised it yet, my name is Karthik and I love to write. I had always longed to be a writer. Everyone who I knew and knew that I wanted to be a writer encouraged me to start a blog. But I never took the leap, plagued by my self-doubt best phrased as “Do I write good enough?” This was running around in my head till one fine day, my professor at college made the class create individual blogs as part of a project and I decided I had postponed the blog enough. My blog was born. Cue: Music Sleeping with your dreams is fun, but living them out is the best life there is. Not many get to include their passion in their life, and thankfully, I can count myself among the lucky few. The support and love I receive on this blog has more than overwhelmed and answered the questions my self-doubt has held up to me. * THANK YOU, DEAR READERS * I now post on an almost regular basis on this blog. Check back and follow my blog for some great fiction and poetry that’s bound to interest you. And of course, rare rants about issues that I feel strongly about.
