Yup, I think we are getting bored here, too. Must think positive thoughts; probably this will soon be behind us; only they say probably the second wave will come soon, this fall.

This Day 20, two-hundred and fifty word story, Now You See Me Now You Don't, has the required line and word count and finds the herb herder living out the quarantine high as a kite and paranoid as a Porky at a pig roast.

lol. I think we've all felt that way -- all of those ways -- during this darned lockdown!
I enjoyed the read, enjoyed the narrator's thought process.

Best of luck in the contest! You did well.

Good job on the Day 20 writing challenge. A couple of possible errors. In the second to the last paragraph I think you men "Now you see me..." instead of "No you see me." And in the first paragraph I think you meant to say "Has anyone seen this virus" instead of "Have anyone seen..."

Good picture choice to go with your flash fiction and a good story.

You are not the only one to suffer a shock to your system. People just do not know how to be isolated under rules meant for their own protection. Everyone is between a rock and a hard place.

    You are right, I am so used to be out all the time, than now I don't know how to walk with a mask and avoid other people.

    I hope this is not our future. The old ways were so much more enjoyable.

This story tells the fun, the hub of the genesis and spread of the pandemic across the world, but it is not so daring as it was planned; well said, well done; enjoyed the read; thank you for sharing this; keep writing. Good luck for the contest. ALCREATOR

1. Does any one knows if is a woman, a child, a man or a pet? (Does anyone know if it is a woman, a child, a man or a pet?)

2. That is how everything starts: first they lock you in, then they let you starve, and at the (That is how everything starts: first they lock you in, and then they let you starve, and thereafter at the)
3. Weeds, anyone? (This is inexpressive, and this is not grammatically correct.)

I see that I'm speaking with an insightful and informed person. It's just the beginning of the end and the beginning of sorrows as you've so eloquently stated. Thanks for sharing this inspirational and well written work. Well done!

I think this is a good entry for the Day 20 writing prompt.
This short piece tells of the current situation with everyone self quarantined, and what it means.
Well done and I wish you good luck with the contest.
