A Hundred Grand

A hundred grand is a lot of money, well to some anyway. I’m still in shock that it is my money. Who would’ve thought a young vampire like me could actually beat the Great Josef Kostan at poker.

I still don’t believe it. I’m just hoping now that he doesn’t come walking through that door, asking for a rematch. I know last night can never be repeated, it was a fluke, a stroke of pure luck, whatever you want to call it.

A familiar scent hits my nose a second before… “Guillermo, Just the vamp I was looking for...” …Josef.


A Hundred Grand

A hundred grand that is what it cost me. A lot of money back then. My wedding, with the special accommodations needed for the vampire guests, and to have everything I always wanted, was expensive. Though the cost was extravagant, it was nothing compared to the price I paid on my wedding night.

The cost of my impatience, my passion? More than I could ever afford, or ever expected to lose. The wedding may have cost a hundred grand, my haste in turning my one true love, the one I would give my immortal life for… an eternity of regrets.

Those are great, Emma-lee. Although the second one is sad.

These are wonderful, Emma-lee.

The first is both light and sharp - such a wonderful contrast. And there's no way G's gonna be able to dodge that re-match.

And then the second - ah those bitter regrets. Poor Cora. Poor Mick.

Marvellously done.

I love the poker one! Adorable. The second one is but beautiful.

The first one is cheeky, the second one is sad. So much regret.
Well done, EmmaLee.

THanks Phee. Cora's memories are always sad.

Thanks Red. No i think G will end up owing the money back to Josef. And yes I don't think Cora will ever get over her loss of Mick...would any of us?

Thanks Francis. Cora seems to have a lot of regrets....

Two very different feelins from each.

Wonderful, Emma-lee.

Funny and sad ...
I like both of them

Thanks Albra. I tried to do a contrast...

Nice response to the challenge, Em!

Lucky

They are both very nice even they are completely different.
The first one made me , the second one made me

Great--I admit I'm partial to the first because I like humour and that was definitely funny. Poor Guillermo...

But I even felt some sympathy for poor Coraline, too.

Yes I do tend to have very different muses occupying my head at any given time. Thanks Fairytoes.

Thanks Nocturne. yeah G always makes me laugh. And I am glad I got you to feel sorry for Cora..my poor misunderstood girl.

Emma-Lee,

what a wonderful response to the challenge!! One man's joy at winning 100Gs countered by one woman's sorrow at losing something more precious than money.

Beautifully done!

I like them both individually, Emma-lee, but as a pair they are wonderful because of the contrast between them. Beautifully done!
