Prompt 4
Catfish - “I wish it was socially acceptable for me to trick or treat on my own, but it’s not, so.”
‘Aren’t you a little to old to be trick or treating?’ You asked Frankie, he smiled and rolled his eyes at you.
‘I wish it was socially acceptable for me to trick or treat on my own, but it’s not, so.’ He told you with a shrug of his shoulders, you raised both eyebrows before disappearing behind the door and reappearing a second later.
‘You know, you can cut out the middle-man and just buy the sweets in for yourself.’ You told him, he nodded.
‘Yeah, but I still have to take little miss out.’ He said, as you looked down at the little girl, dressed up.
‘Let me guess who she’s meant to be.’ You said as you looked at the giggling girl.
‘Princess Leia?’ You guessed, he smiled widely and nodded.
‘You got anything else planned for the night?’ He asked you, you shook your head before placing some soft candies into her bag, before reaching for a lollipop, reaching up and placing it in his shirt pocket, you patted it.
‘There, so you feel like you’ve been trick or treating.’ You told him.
‘Why, thanks.’ He said, curtseying before you. You giggled before placing the tube back on the table.
‘You wouldn’t want to come the rest of the way with us?’ He asked you, you looked at him before looking back to your living room.
‘Sure, let me grab my shoes.’ You told him, he nodded and you quickly left, leaving your door open, trusting him.
