When The Gods Intervene

Prompts = Cloak, Insipid, Wagon

The series of remarkable events resulting in Cornelia receiving an invitation to tea by a rich family with an eligible bachelor won’t be related here but, dear reader, Fate clearly intervened.

However, upon receiving it, Cornelia despaired. She stared at her sole, unremarkable dress. Resigned, she’d cloak herself in plain, nay insipid, fashion and simply be happy for the invitation.

Her tired nag resisted being hitched to the wagon, so she walked.

It was as she wearily entered the house that Cupid, flittering in the parlour, shot young Ebenezer through the heart.

And the rest is, as they say, history.
