It is Friday again and time for Friday Fictioneers with our stories of 100 words from the picture prompt. We are hosted by Rochelle Wisoff-Fields of Addicted to Purple. And here are my 100 words for this week.
Perspiration beaded on her forehead. She felt the sting of it in her eyes. She wished she could rub them. They were itching like the dickens. She could just scream. Her arms and legs were bound to the chair. Was she sorry? No, damn it! The woman had it coming.
The clock was ticking. Her heart pounded, the heat rushing up her face into her head. She squeezed her eyes shut. She heard the switch click. Warm liquid ran down her legs. Oh no! She was falling. Her eyes flew opened. Dazed, she looked around. She was in her bathtub!

You really had me going there! I was really into it, then B A M ! Haha!
Thank you, Joy! It’s fun, isn’t it? 🙂
Yes, it IS fun! I am just so concerned that my writing abilities are too poor.
Don’t worry. Just write!
Lily
Thank you! I do, but still worry. 🙂
Good take on the prompt.
Thank you, Alicia!
Lily
Great twist. I was all set for the death sentence to be carried out and she was just dreaming in her bath. Lucky she didn’t drown instead.
Thank you, Irene! I was wondering if would get the electric chair. My significant other didn’t! I often fall asleep and dream in the tub. I better be careful.
Lily
Not a good place to snooze. Significant others (mine anyway ) often miss what I am trying to say. Your electric chair was quite clear l thought Lily. Thank you for the follow. Cheers Irene
Thank you back for your follow!
Lily
Nasty nightmare there. I was worried for a while.
Thanks for the read and comment, Patrick!
Lily
I had no idea what was happening. A clever end! Nice one, Lily. Good heart-thumping writing!
Thanks, Amy!
Lily
Thank you, Amy!
Leaves me wondering who the unfortunate woman who ‘had it coming’ might have been. Maybe the dreaming lady will get some ideas from her bathtub dream. Very engaging story.
Thanks Margaret! It’s wonderful to have this writing platform – to do away with whomever needed doing away with. 🙂
Lily
Good to wake up in time when you are in your bathtub.. I thought it should be sweet dreams not nightmares.. 🙂
Sometimes you can’t order up the right dream. 🙂
Dear Lily,
A bathtub’s a terrible place to have nightmare, but it made for a good story. 😉
Shalom,
Rochelle
True. 🙂 Thanks Rochelle.
Lily
I wasn’t sure what was happening either, Lily, but it was terrifying. I was relieved she was just dreaming in the bathtub. Although, that could be dangerous also. Well done. 🙂 — Suzanne
I’ve fell asleep in the tub a few times and it is terrifying waking up not knowing where I was at first. I try not to dawdle and get too comfortable now.
Lily
Dear Lily, AWESOME! What a nightmare – glad she was okay and just dreaming! Very well done! Nan 🙂
Thank you Nan!
