The Convent's Repolyo



ELO!

This is a story I had to pass in my creative writing class that I enjoyed doing. It is actually an application of how to make DIALOGUES in stiories. I liked the story, so I guess it's worth your time. Happy Reading!

"Is that the angelus Mother Superior"

"It' been two years since you've entered sister Sophie"

"Oh, I'm just not feeling well these days I suppose"

"That's why I wanted to talk to you"

"But I have to go to the gardener and request for some repolyo for lunch mother"

"What have you been doing these past few days?"

"The repolyo are really needed mother"

"I'll make you some coffee"

"But the repolyo mo-"

"We don’t have repolyo in our garden my dear"

"Oh, I mean the strawbe- I mean the bananas"

"Mang Pido will just have to wait"

"I'm sorry Mother, I am really not feeling well"
"It's a wonder why after feeling pleasure, we somehow feel sick. I guess it's the guilt"

"What guilt Mother?"

"Did Pido ask you?"

"I don't know, the repolyo?"

"Was it big?"

"I hope"

"Did it hurt?"

"The repolyo won't hurt you"

"Was it good?"

"No, I was just about to go"

"Did you take it all?"

"As I said Mother, I was just about to go"

"In the name of the Lord Sophie, stop denying"

"About the repolyo?"

"It was more of an eggplant I suppose-no repolyo in the garden"

"Oh, eggplant"

"Don't worry, that same eggplant made me feel sick too, like you today."

"What?"

"My dear, ask for forgiveness, that's all there is to it"

"I did not sin!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, Mang Pido owns the eggplant, he knows what to do with what

grows after it"

"What! Abortion?"

"After all, I tasted that same eggplant years ago..."
