Scenes I’d Like to See in a Romance #6
The hero is driving his convertible sports car on a country road when he sees a woman in a white dress running up ahead.
He drives up along side her and says: “Lady, why are you jogging in a wedding dress?”
“I’m not jogging. I’m a runaway bride.”
“You do understand don’t you that you don’t literally have to be running to be a runaway bride?”
“I know that but sometimes I think God is a pantser making me do things that don’t make a lot of sense.”
“Hop in and I’ll give you a ride somewhere.”
“If I get in your car, you’ll have to marry me.”
“That would be inconvenient.”
“I’m a runaway bride, this has nothing to do with a marriage of convenience.”
“That’s not what I meant. I’m still married to the last runaway bride I picked up.”

Breaking the fourth wall. Needs to be done.
ReplyDeleteThese are such fun, Vince!
ReplyDeleteHi Marlena:
ReplyDeleteI don’t know what “breaking the fourth wall” refers to. Is it a literary illusion?”

Hi Liz:
ReplyDeleteI’m glad you like these scenes. My whole WIP, “Characters in a Romance” is made up of scenes like these. It gives me hope. : )
