100 Word Challenge – Week#60

October 3, 2012

Before school Norman had been fishing in the river.  He was holding a newt in his hand when the teacher walked into the classroom and asked him to clean the black board.  Suddenly it was in my hand.  I, not knowing what to do; dropped it into Miss Wilson’s water cup standing on her desk nearby. 

We all sat down to attention, waiting while she arranged herself and her belongings behind the desk.  We watched with bated breath as she took several large sips of water, peered into the bottom of the cup and gasped as if she had seen a ghost … Arhhh

    Oh, my. Poor teacher – she’s going to be torn between spotting the culprit and controlling her disgust. Kids! 😉

    Lol. Newt, glass of water: seems the obvious thing to drop it in, right?
    Lovely take on the prompt.
