Drabble me this. 100 words of fiction. Not 99, not 101, not 847. One hundred words precisely.
100 words of fiction. Not 99, not 101, not 847. One hundred words precisely. On choosing the winner, I couldn't care less about popularity and likes. I care about the storytelling. With a good side dish of solid grammar and following the rules of sticking to a hundred words.

There you go

Sit down, she said. So I did. I sat, and I stared at the blank screen in front of me. Write, she said. I set my hands on the keyboard. The first words that came from my hand, read "There you go." 

The story crafted itself from there, as much as it could. I stayed at my keyboard, the invisible person behind me telling me to keep going. One hundred words, she said. You just have to write one hundred words. 

And so I did. I didn't check my phone, or my other tabs, no matter what. 

There you go.
