#FridayFictioneers – Hide ‘n Seek

Billy loved spending his weekend at Gramps place.  He would play with the neighborhood kids out back in the wide open field and surrounding woods.

They played a lot of chase and war, but Billy’s favorite was hide ‘n seek.  He was, by his 11 year old reckoning, the king of hide ‘n seek, always finding the best hiding spots.

Like the old refrigerator he came upon just a bit off the path.  He laughed as the heavy door closed tight, sealing him in darkness.

They would never find him there.

#FridayFictioneers is a weekly blog link up hosted by Rochelle over at RochelleWisoff.com, where our gracious host challenges us to fathom a story based on that weeks photo prompt in just 100 words. Thanks Rochelle! You should totally check it out and perhaps try your hand at your very own 100 word story!

  8. Oh oh, I thought this was where it was going … People HAVE To get the doors off of fridges AND dispose of them appropriately. It is literally a death trap in there. As a child, I knew of someone who died in one.

      1. It was a child in my school. Not a close friend, but the story of it was enough to shake everyone. And I think it was one of those who brought up legislative change about doors being REQUIRED off on all disposed fridges, washing machines, and other such potential traps.
