Flash fiction: UNDER TWO MINUTES
Snow Peas
Mum always tells us to eat our greens. Says they’re good for us. She grows them in the front yard. This year she went pea mad, planting every type of pea she knew.
I hate peas. I swallow them whole, like pills.
So Mum planted snow peas. She was hoping I’d like them. I did, but not as mum had hoped…
Summer was hot. The snow peas were dying. Mum was sad. I wanted to help. I wanted to chase the heat away. I couldn’t, so I ate the snow peas.
They were cold. As I opened my mouth, a gust of cold air rushed out. It filled the room. Small icicles grew on everything it touched. Mum almost fell off her chair in surprise.
