Two Friends

 "Where's your other slipper?" Mom inquired as Naina came out from her bedroom, wearing just one. 


"Maggie is nibbling on it," she said with a yawn as she placed herself next to her and brushed her labrador fondly. 


Just then, a mouse bolted by, and Maggie woofed along with joy instead of running after her. 
The duo was quick to pull up their feet and gave out a shriek. 


"I adopted her so that she could keep our house free of critters, but instead, she rejoices on their company and is busy with human objects." said the enraged mom.




 In 99 words (no more, no less), write a story of mice. It can feature any variety of the little critters in any situation. Are the the character or the inciting incident? Use any genre, including BOTS (based on a true story). Go where the prompt leads!
