Panting heavily, Mary rushed into the abandoned building, and banged the door shut behind her.
Tears ran down her eyes as she recalled how everyone used to comment on how inseparable both of them were.
But then, they grew up, and it was fun and games no more.
He refused to leave her alone for even a second. She felt like she was being smothered mercilessly.
And so, she ran, away from him, towards freedom, and safety.
Suddenly, she heard a scraping at the door, and her face went white.
CRASH!
Mary’s little lamb had followed her here too!

I bet mutton chops are beginning to look more and more tasty to Mary by now. Now, where did I put that mint sauce…
Ha ha ha
I’ve now seen that nursery rhyme in a new light. There’s no going back
Ha ha ha, sorry 🙂
Everywhere that Mary went…. Guess it was inevitable!
I think so too 🙂
Show him a jar of mint sauce. That should give him pause for thought.
Ha ha ha
It must be extremely difficult to deal with someone obsessional like that. I enjoyed the way you told that story, Anurag!
Thank you so much Penny.
lol, everywhere that Mary went….
Eggjaktly!
That’s one scary lamb.
I’m sure Mary agrees 🙂
i guess it’s time to send him to the butchery and be done with it.
I’m sure Mary agrees!
Mmmm… c’mon Mary. Lambchops for dinner!
This was fun!
Ha ha ha. Thank you so much Dale.
Pets are like that, and then turn into wolfs. Great laugh at the end.
Thank you so much James.
Sounds like the more she ran from him, the more she ran towards him.
True.
Dear Anurag,
Oh this made me laugh out loud. I’d say by now the lamb is one hulking sheep. Well done!
Shalom,
Rochelle
Mary had a hulking sheep, and the hulking sheep almost had Mary? 🙂
What a fun twist at the end. Good story!
Thank you so much 🙂
You are very welcome 🙂
That’s scary, Anurag. He turned from devotion to obsession. I hate to think about what might come next. Who needs that good a friend? Well written.

Thank you so much Suzanne.
Frightening!
Oh yes.
He doesn’t sound like much of a lamb! Time to get some legal help.
Or a machete!
