Sophie’s 100WC – …but what colour should it be?
I walk into work – a bright smile plastered on my pale face.
“Morning Tom, Morning Grace,” I say confidently, as I stride towards the coffee station with pride. But suddenly my evil, incredibly large boss blocks my path and… gives me a cup of coffee?
“Hi Sophie, how are you today? I need to ask you an important question,” he says slowly and clearly.
“H-hi b-boss, h-how are y-you?”
I stagger as I fear he might fire me.
“I’ve been working on this new product lately,” he announces and ignores my fear of him.
“…But what colour should it be…?”
Hello Sophie,
Bullying in schools and workplaces can be a big problem. Sophie’s reaction to her boss would be worrying but, in this case, the boss wanted her help. I found Sophie’s encounter and reaction interesting to read. Well done.
Your entry is one of the best written I have seen. Your use of speech and its associated punctuation is well presented.
With your skills in writing, I hope you can continue to share your adventures.
