Wow Tom! What a great first 100 Word Challenge story! I enjoyed your opening to the story. It had a simple style which flowed along and yet demanded little of the reader. Your hook came with 'One night, Kevin woke up to a high-pitched scream'. I definitely wanted to find out more! His concern for Rosemary was felt by the reader too! And your punchline was super... 'saw a little mouse...' It was so banal and yet the reaction that most people would give on seeing a mouse in the middle of the night!! I bet Kevin and Rosemary had a good laugh about the incident the next morning!! Your sense of fun comes through the story and it is so enjoyable to read!! Well done Tom!
