Leaving Eden by Tom Horonzy
Surprise! 80 Words or Less writing prompt entry

 
 
"Surprised?"
 
I cannot tell a lie.
Eve ate of the Tree of Knowledge confessing her mistake
She hoped I would join in to not end up alone.
I could have faked having a fig in my pocket; but didn't,
knowing she needed me to multiply thus I partook of that tree, too.
 
God, replied. "You are quite the guy, but surprise! 
No more free meals and please give Eve your fig leaf,
before closing the gate on your way out."
 


Writing Prompt
Write a complete story in 80 words or less.

The theme is 'Surprise.'

You may incorporate this theme into the story any way you wish, but it must somehow relate to the topic.

Author Notes
The picture supposedly indicates Adam and Eve leaving Eden.
The photography is my own.
I did what I could with eighty words.
