Prompt 303 – Creative

“How did you get into my room?”

There were so many responses to last weeks prompts, it was a hard choice to make. I decided to go with the first taker, which got a lot of response in the forum. Enjoy Jamessavik's take on Prompt #300:

The Legacy

 

The Curio Shoppe on McArther Boulevard had been there as long as anyone could remember. The old man that ran it lived in a apartment on the top floor of the building.

 

It was a regular stop for Caleb Williams who had going there since junior high. Now on his 21st birthday he was home from college with a couple of friends and making the rounds in the town.

 

When he pulled up to the shop, his friends gave him a look.

 

He shrugged and said, "Give it a look. I think you'll be surprised."

 

When they entered the store, a bell on the front door announced their entry.

 

As soon as they were inside, there was a hiss astonishment from Rick and Joe actually whistled.

 

In the front of the store there were rows and rows of chest high bookshelves that were filled with old books of all sorts.

 

Exquisite antique furniture was displayed in the space behind the bookshelves.

 

Magnificent paintings, coat of arms and wall hanging of all sorts filled the wall spaces.

 

The old man that ran the place was napping behind the cash register.

 

Caleb approached him and said, "Good afternoon Mr. Jenkins."

 

The old man opened his eyes and said, "Caleb! Good to see you laddie. It has been a while."

 

Caleb nodded and said, "I'm home for my birthday and I'm showing some friends around."

 

The old fellow grinned and said, "I'm glad you brought them by."

 

Rick said, "This place is magnificent. The stuff in here must be worth a fortune."
