This week I chose the prompt 'Have a character play a guitar.'
Here is a sneak peek at what you'll find in chapter 8:
Grateful to be
out of the hospital after a prolonged stay, Ethan slowly got out of Chris’s
car. Moving slowly and walking with a weird gait, he ascended the steps and
opened the door to his house. Entering the living room, the first thing he saw
was a huge banner that said “Welcome home Ethan.” Looking around the room he
saw all of his friends and a couple of his repeat customers, some crying tears
of joy and relief that he was alive and on the mend.
Tears were
flowing freely at this demonstration of love and friendship. Everybody carefully
hugged Ethan, telling him how happy they were that he was still alive and in
one piece as they left. Soon it was just him, Chris, Troy and Alicia.
As they settled
in, Alicia began, “Ok, here’s what I know. Patrick is being charged with
hit-and-run, attempted murder, multiple counts of rape, assault with a deadly
weapon, and invasion of privacy. He’s also been charged with threatening to
murder Chris.”
“Assault with a
deadly weapon?” Ethan wanted to know.
