“There’s a snake in the water. Look!“
“Oh no. But wait – is that a white snake? What in the world?”
“I have never seen or heard of a white snake in this lake before.“
“Me neither. But man, he is sure moving on. Headed straight to our shore. Oh no!”
“Now he has wiggled his way right into the rocks on the shore. I guess we will be seeing him again.”
“Well, that doesn’t make me very happy. Not one bit.”
“Me neither. Ugh!”
**********
“Hey we saw a white snake just now, swimming across the lake. And look, there he is again.”
“Or maybe it is another one. This one seems bigger!”
“We are infested with snakes. Oh no!”
“A snake, huh? I agree it looks like a snake, but I think that airplane and its trail streaking across the sky up there is being reflected in the still water. That’s what has you spooked. The ripples make it look just like it is side-winding right through the water.”
“Oh yeah, you are right!”
“Besides, who ever heard of a white snake?”
“Not in this lake. No way!”

I love the build up of this slice, I love that the whole thing is dialogue too. Thanks for sharing!
