Sunday Stroll (5 of 6): a 50-word story. “Speak up”. Humpbuckle Tales 201

“I miss Yasmin,” Olivia says, suddenly. “We should try to find her.”

“Rescue her, you mean?” Jay says, eyebrow raised. “Break into the cult compound, in the dead of night, guns blazing?”

“She lives in a compound?”

“A farm, I think,” Amanda says. “Somewhere In Wales. They have a website.”

This is the two-hundred-and-first 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.

“Anyone heard from Yasmin?” Olivia asks. “Last I heard she had joined some kind of commune.”

“More like a cult,” Amanda says. “I tried to talk her out of going.”

“You could never reason with Yasmin.”

Remembering the past, silence covers them, spreading like spilt ink on a blank page
