The Windy City

“You what?”

“I already told you! I BOUGHT A PLACE IN CHICAGO !”

“Why?!”

“So I can go to school here, ya know and-”

“You’re insane.”

“I know. Great, isn’t it?”

“Not really.”

“But Mom-”

”...”

“Mom?”

”. . .”

“MOM?”

A dropped call can ruin a conversation. Cingular is the new AT&T.

    I don’t know if I would classify this as a “twist ending,” but it gets points for making me laugh my ass off.

    I’ve got to agree with Mistress and Nick. The conversation is certainly bad news but I wouldn’t call it a twist; it heads in the same direction from beginning to end. But it’s a nice take on the whole Cingular/AT&T thing (and was in that regard unexpected). Thanks for entering my challenge!
