Playing with Myself
A guy's gotta' do what a guy's gotta' do.
“Come on, man! Let me out.”
“Not sure that's a good idea. Last time you totally went off on me.”
“But it turned out okay. Besides, we needed it.”
“It was messy.”
“But it was good! Admit it. You feel better.”
“Yeah, but I'm still not sure I like the way it happened.”
“Dude! I promise, I'll hold back. Totally under control.”
“Likely story.”
“You can trust me. C'mon, gimme a chance!”
“Fine, but I'm warning you...”
Fingers poised precariously over the keyboard, I let go.
“Alright, let's play.”

Something in the words he spoke - lol 😊 Nice play on the dialogue 👏 Congratulations on Top story!
Clever use of dialogue to drive the story! It’s always fun to experiment with different forms like this. The double entendre is great too. Deceptively simple to write, I imagine! Congrats! 🎈
Haha. Fun one. Congratulations 🥇
