Sunday Stroll (2 of 6): a 50-word story. “carrot cake”. Humpbuckle Tales 198

They walk for an hour before stopping at a bench that overlooks the sea.

Jay opens up their rucksack and pulls out a bottle of champagne and three slices of carrot cake.

“We’ll need to drink from the bottle,” they say. “No glasses.”

“To us!” Amanda says, raising the bottle.

This is the one-hundred-and-ninety-eighth story in the series of Humpbuckle Tales. Each story is precisely 50 words long. They are meant to be independent stories, but if you read them all you will find each one adds another piece to the puzzle – there is a bigger story that is being told.

This story was first published on my Hive blog (@felt.buzz) and you can find all the stories on the @humbuckletales Hive account.

Hive is a blogging platform that rewards posts in a cryptocurrency (Hive).

You will find over 70 more Humpbuckle Tales on the @humbuckletales Hive blog (so this blog is about 6 weeks behind)

On Hive I publish 12 stories per week (Monday to Saturday one story per day and then six 50-word stories in one post on a Sunday).

On HumpbuckleTales.com I also publish 12 tales a week but at a different schedule (and about 6 weeks behind): 2 Tales every day, Monday-Friday and 1 Tale on Saturday and 1 Tale on Sunday.
