Rest In Peace my friend.

Betty this is dedicated to you my dear sweet friend. Be strong and have your memories always.

It is that time of the week. One I look forward to a great deal. And by the way Quilly, mahalo for hosting Three Word Thursday. It’s a blast and I can’t tell you how much I enjoy it. Each week Quilly at Quintessentially Quilly gives us three words to compose a story. You can get further instructions here or you can click the picture above.

This week’s words are:

odynometer – n. instrument for measuring pain
brephophagist – n. one who eats babies
sagittipotent – adj. having great skills in archery

STRATEGY

JerriLynn was fuming mad. She knew that BettySue tainted the chocolate covered strawberries with what must have been ex-lax. The toilet paper had been her odynometer. Six rolls in a day and a half! It was no wonder her buttocks were on fire leaving JerriLynn in excruciating pain. Lying still on a towel covered with ice she decided she need to call Yelleka.

Yelleka was a brilliant attorney. She knew both JerriLynn and BettySue from childhood and was shocked at the story that JerriLynn was relating to her over the phone.

“I’m going to get even with that bitch if it is the last thing I do. You think a brephophagist is evil, well you haven’t seen anything yet” JerriLynn spat.

“Calm down” Yelleka said in a very soothing voice. “Revenge is never an answer JerriLynn. You know that as well as I do. First and foremost, you don’t know if she had anything to do with tainting the strawberries….”

“I haven’t eaten anything else since I purchased them. She had to do something to them” JerriLynn interrupted. “I know her. My sister is as evil as me.”

“As I was saying there are other possibilities to factor into the equation. Bad strawberries. Bad chocolate. An unsanitary kitchen. Just to name a few. You are acting, JerriLynn, as if she is guilty before we know all the facts. We will question her and see what she knows and proceed from there” Yelleka responded. Continuing. “We will be prepared like the great sagittipotent William Tell. If our first set of questions do not produce the truth, we will rely on our back-up set of facts and blackmail her” the eldest of the three sisters said. “And before you ask, it’s a metaphor to his arrows JerriLynn” Yelleka smiled.

Yelleka had dirt on both her sisters and hoped she never would have to resort to using it, but if worse came to worse, she would. JerriLynn would not rest until BettySue paid a price for those tainted chocolate covered strawberries.

    Brephophagists would make William Penn an even better sagittipotent, if he gets sick of targetting apples atop young kids’ heads.

    ‘Lying still on a towel covered with ice’ – that would be soooooo cold.

    LOL! Only you could make a story work in which the toilet and one’s rear played a large part. It was great. Is this story going to continue. It has loads of appeal to see what the sisters do.
