“My feet know more about music then you do!” he boasted one day at lunch. “My feet know good music when they hear it. They have taste!”
Sharma, who had know Majik for thirteen years, ignored her best friend and continued chewing her sandwich.
“They tingle!” Majik said. “When the music is good I get this tingle in my toes that tells me the music is good!”
Sharma swallowed and took another bite. Majik was always talking about tingly toes. Personally, she thought there was a good chance it was just athlete’s foot or some other skin condition that had gone untreated for too long.
“I could be a music agent.” said Majik. “I’d never pick a bad band because I would always be able to tell who was really good.”
Brushing off her hands, Sharma swallowed the last of her sandwich.
“You liked Milli Vanilli.” she reminded him.
It sort of fits.

Loved Sharma’s dismissive attitude and thoughts about athlete’s foot. And that last line really sums up Majik’s skills.
Thank you! I think was two words under the word limit so I was really pleased with how this turned out. It took me a while to decide on a band though.
He he, made me smile!
I’m glad. I’m rather enjoying trying to write more lighthearted pieces recently.
HA! The last line made me laugh aloud. So much is said about these characters without overt description – a truly comfortable “odd couple” with their own long history of quirks. Love this. Great use of the prompt!
If I’m not mistaken – I think this is your first VisDare? Welcome to the VisDare family!! Are you on Twitter, by any chance?

This made me smile.
I’m glad. I’ve been trying to vary the tone of my work recently. I doesn’t too to write a constant stream of heavy work.
Haha . . . fun story! And I loved the last line 🙂
I’m glad. I’m finding it great fun writing upbeat flash fiction, and so many people seem to enjoy it. 😀
