pandora's post
by b. k. mcswain
lillian couldn't believe how out of hand everything had
become after her innocuous post; it was only supposed to
entertain her friends. after all, skye was an incredible
singer/songwriter, and lillian only wanted her friends to know,
but now, skye was not talking to her, and she was in danger of
losing her new best friend. it all started three weeks ago when
lillian was at skye's house and skye mentioned she played the
guitar.
"how have we been friends for so long, and i never knew
you played?" lillian asked.
"six months is not that long, but it does seem like we've
known each other for years," skye admitted, strumming the
guitar. then she began a melody that captivated lillian and
when she began singing, lillian couldn't believe her friend was
so talented. she fumbled with her phone until she had accessed
the video camera and began recording the impromptu
performance
"this is so going up on my pagel" lillian announced and
before skye could protest, the song was posted to her social
media page, and before skye could insist she take it down, it
had 15 likes. " lillian convinced her friend to let it stay, and they
would've forgotten all about it had it not gone viral.
