Be Brave (Friday Fictioneers)
PHOTO PROMPT © Ronda Del Boccio
Bethze crept closer, wrapping her hand around a blade of grass. Shaking her shoulders, she drew her wings in tight against her back. Couldn’t see or hear the monster. She crawled between the long waving fronds wanting to see the porch. That’s what the big people call it. A Porch. Funny name.
She wriggled enough to peer toward the mirror-like glass door.
“Woof woof woof!”
“Eeep!” Bethze fell back onto her butt. “Monster!”
The sniffing grew. A wet black nose appeared. “Yip!” The head disappeared. She followed it and grinned at the long tongue and wagging tail. “Awww, cute monster.”
