This is my fourth entry into the weekly challenge brought to us by Rochelle Wisoff-Fields. Just follow the rules: Write a one hundred word story that has a beginning, middle and end. (No one will be ostracised for going over or under the word count.)
Comments are welcome!
“Whatever went into you Gordon Fraser? And, please, tuck your shirt back into your trousers and straighten your tie!”
“Yes, Sir! I don’t know, Sir. I am terribly sorry.”
“You do realise that you don’t punch a teacher in the face, ever! You are one of our star pupils. Never a problem since you have been with us. One more year and Oxbridge was within reach. And music is your favourite subject. I just don’t get it.”
“I know, Sir. But Mr Austin found it funny to turn up dressed in kilt. You don’t mess with a Scot, Sir, ever.”
Clever – a lot said with just a bit of dialogue. And what a funny image.
Thank you Leora! I like the image too!
Gordon’s a fierce nationalist I gather. Nice take on the prompt.
A proud Scot that’s for sure! Thank you, Sandra.
He’s got his priorities straight at least: nation before education. Nice dialogue building to the reveal at the end.
Lol! Thank you David!
Perhaps the real problem is that Gordon found out whether he did or he didn’t and the answer was incorrect.
Don’t mess with a Scot –
he’ll do gr8 things
I hope he will! I am quite fond of Gordon, despite his overreaction.
Very creative!
Thank you Lorri!
Hear, hear! As one with Scottish red hair on me, I’ll applaud this one.
Thank you zookyworld!
This is great. Three cheers for Scotland. 🙂
Thank you Penny!
That’s right, we won’t take that kind of derogatory abuse; ever!
Nice to see you got the message lingeringvisions! 🙂
Gotta little Scottish blood in my veins as well 🙂
I like the way he gets his point across. I bet not many people mess with him! and I’ll also wager that’s the last time Mr. Austin ever wears a kilt or anything close to it! I admire the way you made this into a real story. Nicely done.
I hope he has learned a lesson! Thank you Linda.
Hilarious!
Thank you Shainbird!
Funny post, nicely done!
Thank you Perry!
Definitely don’t mess with a Scot! Very creative…
😉
Thank you Freya!
Don’t understand why anyone would opt for a kilt. Never have, never will. 😛
Maybe be it’s because you’re not a Scottish man!
Words to live by. How can anyone not understand this? Loved it.
Thank you EagleAye!

hilarious 🙂
Thank you!
That must have been quite the wallop! I’ve seen a lot of good dialogue so far this week – nicely done Hannah!
Thank you troy for visiting and commenting!
Hannah that’s great – I was thinking the teacher must have done something major to provoke such a reaction! Great what power fashion has. Our physics teacher used to be famous for Kipper ties, good job he didn’t teach fish!
Thank you neenslewy for nice comment!
Ha ha… 🙂
🙂
I’m dreading the image of the teacher wearing that kilt & going thru the piano :-\ But nicely done!
Thank you angelgal3176!
As one with Celtic ancestors and connections, I have to point out that there is no kilt in this photo. The backside in question is wearing Plus Fours. Which is just as well, considering how he ended up, anatomically. Otherwise, it may have looked like someone had thrown two haggises at the piano. I have no idea who Mr Austin is! Thanks for the humour. Ann
Ann, the first thing I saw was a kilt. In the end, it didn’t matter to me that it wasn’t one!
Glad you enjoyed the story.
I hope you realise I was joking, not admonishing!
Don’t worry! I had perfectly understood.
I hope you realise I was joking, not admonishing!
I hope you realise I was joking, not admonishing!
I hope you realise I was joking, not admonishing!
Well, well done! I’m sure I understand that Scot.
Thank you!
At least it wasn’t a ‘Glasgow handshake’ – a pretty powerful punch, though!
A bit too powerful, maybe! 🙂
