The Travel Agency Takes a Trip to Next Door

A fictional comedy from CyberBabiez. The characters and events are invented.

After organizing imaginary expeditions all year, Mimi closed the agency for its own holiday.

Her staff proposed distant islands, glittering cities, and a mountain shaped like a teapot.

Mimi booked the room next door.

Everyone protested until they arrived. The window faced a different tree. The clock ticked more slowly. Someone had left an unfamiliar board game.

They spent the afternoon learning the rules incorrectly and inventing better ones.

The suitcase bought a pencil as a souvenir. The postcard finally rested. Tuesday joined them after work.

At sunset, they walked the six steps home.

'What shall we call this package?' asked the brochure writer.

Mimi thought for a moment.

'No package. Just a pleasant afternoon.'

The writer stared at the blank page, then put down the pen and joined the game.
