This choice: You hide the feet quickly and rush to the door... • Go Back...Chapter #5You hide the feet quickly and rush to the door... by: Unknown Uh-oh.. you didn't expect Marcie (your girlfriend) to show up today. You stash Sarah's feet under the sofa cushions, disappointed you'll need to wait until later to get a good look at them.
You open the door. "Marcie! I thought you were out of town today?" You try your best to look innocent.
Marcie looks at you funny, but shakes it off. "Yeah, but things changed, and I got the day off instead, and thought I'd see what you were up to. And WHAT are you up to? I know that look!"
"Nothing, nothing!" You invite her inside. "Just playing around with something I bought at the magic shop earlier today".
Marcie walks inside and sits down on the sofa. "You bought something at the magic shop? What? You didn't finally buy that sawing-in-half box you keep talking about, did you?" Marcie smiled with that attitude of "I know you better than you think".
"Oh no, not that." You try to look innocent. Marcie shifts around uncomfortably on the sofa. "You'd be the first to know if I did that, my dear assistant!"
Marcie laughs. "I hope so!" She shifts again on the sofa, starting to look more curious than uncomfortable. "What's with this sofa? Did you break a spring or something?" She gets up and lifts up the cusion, revealing Sarah's cut-off feet stuffed underneath. Marcie freezes as she spies them. After a few moments she picks one up and asks "Umm, what's this? Some kind of toy?"
You turn bright red in embarrassment. "Umm, maybe? hehe"
Marcie inspects the foot a bit further and notices the foot is warm, maybe even real...
"Marcie, I can explain!!
Marcie continues to look at the foot, eventually pulling off the shoe. Sarah's bare foot wiggles its toes in the fresh air. Marcie jumps, almost dropping the foot. "You can explain THIS??"
"Ummm.. well, I suppose you might believe anything I tell you now.. " You stammer, but continue. Sarah was wrong about her feet.. they were spectacular.. but unfortunately, Marcie, not you, currently held them in her hands. "I bought a magic guillotine and my neighbor Sarah came over and let me cut off her feet... She liked it so much she let me keep them while she went home to watch her soaps!".. You speak rapidly, nervously, barely noticing that Marcie doesn't look the slightest bit upset.
Marcie played with Sarah's wiggling toes, barely noticing your nervous explanation. "Let me see this guillotine! I want to try it!'
You're still upset, nervous about Marcie finding Sarah's feet, but are starting to convert all that to excitement after hearing Marcie's request. "You mean.. umm, really?!"
Marcie tickled Sarah's foot. "Really! I just wish I got here first! Show me, please?"
Marcie grabs Sarah's other foot and follows you out to the garage and the guillotine. "Wow that's so cool! Let me try it? Please?
Marcie sits down on the guillotine and places her _____ through the lunette. "Let the blade drop!"
