100 Word Wednesdays – Bowl

Bowl
By Grant Baciocco

Chester came upon the glass.  Its curved surface distorting the items on the other side, but he was able to make out letters written on a large white object.  He went slowly, sounding it out.

“Ne….new….news.” He said.  He squinted, “News.  News?  What could that mean?”  He was still and studied the word a little longer, hoping to put it into context.  Nothing was coming to him.  “News.” He thought again, “What could that mean?”

He decided a swim around the bowl might clear his mind.

The trip was short and then Chester came upon the glass again.
