A Funny Thing Happened On the Way To Picnic

A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Picnic. Funny thing happened on way to picnic close to a jungle. Taking twelve people three cars started simultaneous. Cars going in queue, front- one, driven by my uncle. We were in joyous mood, singing loud in chorus. On road side, morning walkers were practicing jog. Through military campus road led to our destination. All the bungalows showing warning ‘Beware of dog’. We were relaxed and car running in slow motion. Haply from a house, came out a running Alsatian, just to commit suicide on hit of our car. With a rifle rushed the owner, a military man. All were frightened to deal with the disaster. My uncle got down, apologized, ‘just to mention, I have no fault, please try to understand. Excuse us Sir, take this money as compensation.' Stern looked officer hesitated, but stretched his hand. ‘Ok. Fine. Accepting your ‘Fine’ as you are feeling sad. Killing the rascal, you have done a great favor. I am going to shoot him as he has gone mad. Never mind. In future, be a cautious driver.’ 06/30/18 Third Place Funny Memories Contest by Natasha L Scragg
