Microfiction Day 174 – ‘So What?’

“What if I fail?”

A shrug. “So what if you do?”

Silence. Time ticked by as it waited to be filled.

“Everyone might laugh at me. Talk about me behind my back.”

A shrug. “So what if they do?”

Silence. Time ticked by as it waited to be filled.

“It could affect my reputation. It could mean I have to start again.”

A shrug. “So what if it does?”

Silence. Time ticked by as it waited to be filled.

More silence.

“Have you stopped to think about what might happen if you don’t fail?”

No more silence.

“I could fly.”
