The prompt this week for the ZAPFIC50 Monday challenge is "laser". My association with the word is a personal one, since my spouse underwent laser surgery. No matter how safe a procedure is, there is a risk if one has underlying conditions. Nothing is guaranteed that the procedure will be successful if all goes well during the operation. I share a micro story related to the prompt in the format of a 50-word story created by @felt.buzz.

My story is below:

Sheila couldn't help but notice the awkward silence; the hurried movements.

"Are you scared?"

Feeling vulnerable, Norman turned, and in a slow breath. "Given the risks, wouldn't you be?

Her soft embrace calmed him. "Yes, if I could no longer look upon your handsome face after laser surgery."

They laughed.

El tema de esta semana para el reto de los lunes de ZAPFIC50 es "láser". Mi relación con esta palabra es personal, ya que mi cónyuge fue operada con láser. Por muy seguro que sea un procedimiento, existe un riesgo si se padecen enfermedades subyacentes. Nada garantiza el éxito del procedimiento si todo va bien durante la operación. Comparto un microrrelato relacionado con el tema en formato de relato de 50 palabras creado por @felt.buzz.

A continuación mi historia.

La cita

Sheila no pudo evitar notar el silencio incómodo; los movimientos apresurados.

"¿Tienes miedo?"

Sintiéndose vulnerable, Norman se giró e inspiró lentamente. "Dados los riesgos, ¿no lo estarías?

El suave abrazo de ella le tranquilizó. "Sí, si ya no pudiera contemplar tu hermoso rostro después de la cirugía láser".

Se rieron.

Sometimes, it's lighthearted banters that eases the tension and anxiety of facing surgery of any kind. I love the shared humor and love between Sheila and Norman. Nicely done!

I hope you're having a good day. Take care. !PIMP 😊

Yes, a kind word and lighthearted banter can ease tension. The most important thing is that the person will be there for you during recovery to face whatever happens going forward.
