I said it was the last time last time
A simple prompt - a line from the chorus of Grandson's song Fallin' (Temptation) that punches me in the gut every time. In 200 words or less, tell me where it takes you.
Just once more?
"I said it was the last time down the slide"
"Aw, but I want to keep playing."
"It's getting late, let's go home."
"Just once more?"
"I said it was the last time I would let you win."
"And yet somehow, I'm winning?"
"Beginners luck."
"Just once more?"
"I said it was the last time I watched this movie with you."
"But it's my favorite."
"But we've seen it 100 times."
"Just once more?"
"I said it was the last time."
"Just once more...
Please?"
