Crocodile Tears by ~Toboe-Wolf:iconToboe-Wolf:



“Henry!”

The name echoed through the muggy Florida night. Mosquitoes buzzed around the woman, who waved at them irritably.

“Henry baby!” Lisa wailed again. Single and in her mid forties she had looked to the local pound in an attempt to assuage her lonely single life. And there was Henry. A chubby tabby, he filled all her lonely moments with surprise. Now he was missing, and she was desperately stalking up and down her waterfront back yard.  And underneath the calm water an alligator contently rested, shedding crocodile tears for the silly cat that wandered from its tiny yard.

I entered this in a contest called flash fiction smackdown. It has to be under 99 words with charaters, conflict, conclusion and a crisis. I absolutly hated it. My writing is very discriptive and i had the hardest time narrowing this down.... XD It is exactly 99 words. BooYah. Anyway it one first in the competion which made me very happy! Yehhh!
