No Room
by JE Lillie
There are the wise and then there are those who know the future. I know the future. I wish I was wise. Delusion at least comes with a dose of hope.
The future told me there was going to be trouble. I didn’t say anything because the future doesn’t flutter. It sits and waits.
As our boat entered the canal, the captain of the other boat screamed, “Stop you fool! There’s no room!”
Metal grated on metal. Our boat sank. Three died that day because of the door I had barred when the future told me I should.

I liked the future not fluttering
Thank you.
This is such a sad tale down in such a straight-talking voice, which makes it all the more chilling. Like the line, ‘Delusion at least comes with a dose of hope.’
‘Done’ I meant to type 😦
Thanks. It was meant to chill.
I think the matter of fact voice is the most chilling
Thanks Dale!
Telling it like it is. The lack of emotion in the narrator’s voice adds so much.
