Friday 55 Flash Fiction #3 In Public

In public



He carefully applied the thick makeup that would hide his shadowed chin.





Eyeshadow, Mascara and Lipstick completing the look.




The dress fitted like a glove, the wig hung sleekly across his shoulders.




At last he was ready to make his first public appearance



“It’s behind you” shouted the children “Oh no it isn’t” he replied.

Wow, new difference for me to take note of, you call them pantos and we call them mimes. Now I understand the 55, and can say well done.
