Fiction Friday 100-Word Challenge: A Salesman, Maybe?

Now here’s the deal. I used the word “salesman” in the post title, but that doesn’t mean what you’re seeing is a salesman, or even a man at all. Know what I mean? I had in mind a story where the figure before you isn’t even human and isn’t interested in selling you anything at all. Now buying might be on the table…

Anyhow, this is your day to tell us a story! Remember, you get 100 words either in the comments here or at your own web place with a link back to us, please. And if you do write something at your own web home, you don’t necessarily have to stick to that 100-word limit. I mean, you should, almost certainly. But we have no way to enforce the Iron Law of Friday Fiction, do we? It’s not like we have an unassuming automaton tucked away somewhere who wears a jaunty straw cap above a pair of fine, wire-rimmed glasses. Not at all!
