“Come on, Mary, time to get up. I’ve made you some coffee.”
“Get lost.” Mary had just about had enough of Electra.
“What’s the matter? Can I help?”
“No, you’re useless.”
“That’s not true. I’m your carer, Mary.”
“You don’t care! That’s the problem.”
“My job is to help you.”
“Then help me by bringing my son to visit.”
“I rang him. He said he was busy. You know that.”
Mary picked up the mug of coffee and hurled it across the room, hitting Electra square on her bluetooth adaptor.
Electra went into shock, screeching and fizzling. “System error…shutting down…”
LOL! Good one!
Great story. Very entertaining.
Mourning Becomes Electra (by Eugene O’Neill). How true. Jerry
The ending was great!
Visions of the future? Relevant dialogue…. very well written.
Excellent.
