Creativity Explored: Mangus and Chu

Creativity Explored: Magnus and Chu by Michelle Mason - MyFrenchLife.org - Ron fox photography

We could see Chu from our spot on the beach—the drop hadn’t been made yet. The sun is setting and it’s getting colder, I wish they’d hurry up.

I hate working this close to Magnus, yet I love it at the same time.

He’s both annoying and intoxicating.

Why does The Firm always partner us?

Magnus leans in for a kiss, slightly turning his head for a better look at Chu. He kis… SHOTS FIRED!

Magnus knocks me to the ground, half-covering me with his body. We lay still for what seems like forever. Only two shots. We give each other a “what the hell just happened” look, as we spit sand out and get back on our feet.

Chu is lying on the sidewalk—dead, or close to it—as a crowd gathers around. The sirens are getting close; time for us to leave.
