The traffic never seemed so bad as now when Maggie was hurrying.
BEEP!
A glance into the mirror, then into the oncoming lane. She HAD to get to there before . . .
BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP! She slid safely back into her own lane as the SUV careened past her. “Why won’t the blasted cars get out of the way?â€
She HAD to get there.
Not much farther.
FINALLY!
An arm reached in, switched the motor off. “Come, Maggie, let’s get you out of the car. They’re all waiting for you in there. You and the wee lassie who is struggling to arrive. Come now.â€

Velvet Verbosity’s 100 Word Challenge this week is using the word HURRYING in a piece. These are my words . . . where are yours?
btw, when you are visiting VV do check out her etsy shop and the sweet word-birds. I plan to get some if I can remember my etsy information.
Isn’t that the way things are? The more in a hurry you are, the more fate works against you.
I hope Maggie isn’t the one trying to produce said wee lassie — that would be even more or a reason to hurry!
Oh my. Sounds like Maggie needed an ambulance to follow. 😉 Thanks for the shout out on the new shop. I got a banner up and have been gathering all my books around to see what I want to do next.
