DP Daily Prompt: Unexpected Guests

pad2014-s.png (308×60)

You walk into your home to find a couple you don’t know sitting in your living room, eating a slice of cake. Tell us what happens next.

I was not happy to see an unknown couple in my living room eating a  piece of cake. Before I said anything to them, I asked my daughter,if they were her friends. 

She told me she didn’t know them either, my question was , “Why did you let them in?”

“They said they are your relatives.” 

It was my turn to go back to the room and ask how are they related to me.

Both husband and wife realized I was not happy to see them, the wife came forward and tried to give me a hug, I stepped back  a few feet, I looked at her inquiringly, not knowing what to say or do she started sobbing hysterically,I was firm and demanded an answer or else I threatened to call the police. 

She began to tell her story, apparently there was some mechanical problem with the flight,the pilot thought it best to make an emergency landing, the airline was unable to provide hotels for the passengers,instead they suggested to get hold of some families they knew and were confident that they could spend the night, the plane would be ready to take off early morning.

I dismissed her story and gave them a few minutes to pack up and leave, it wasn’t easy I had to do it.

Invited guests is fine but uninvited guests no thanks!

365 days Writing Prompt: Dulled

You encounter a mysterious man offering you a magic potion that,once sipped will make one of your senses (sight,hearing,taste,smell,touch)super sharp—but dull the others. Will you sip it, and if so, what sense do you choose?

I will reject the mysterious man’s potion, I feel I need all of my senses working as they should, if any of them is dulled, there will be serious consequences, I have seen people who have hearing loss, it is not easy for them to do their daily work, to help them they get hearing aid, which is not the right substitute because it has its flaws.

Hearing ,taste,touch,smell have their own specific duties, making one super sharp and dulling the others cannot work for me.
