Tough Luck Mister // Five Minutes Free write

Screenshot From Writing prompt generator ( squibler.io)

It's another Friday, Mike shouted as he hurriedly walked out of his bed, rushed to the bathroom, brushed his teeth, and headed straight to the betting shop nearby. "Every day is another day to take the risk," he said as he entered the shop and went to the visual screen. "I know I am new to football betting and I don't really know much about it but let me try my luck again," he said.

The guy at the counter looked at him and said, "I wouldn't advise you to play today again, I remember the looks on your last week after you lost. Take some time for a break and ease your mind" but all he said ministered nothing to Mike because he was just too zealous to learn betting. "Just do it for me broh, is it, not my money"? Mike said. The guy at the counter seemed to have no option but to do as he was bided, so he played the match given to him by Mike and few minutes later his prediction went wrong and guess what? He didn't even know until the guy at the counter said "tough luck mister, your ticket just cut again.

Gosh! It sounded like hell to Mike but he had no one to blame because he was warned before he attempted it. Quietly he moved from the screen and sat on the long bench kept in the shop. "What happened"? A man asked. Isn't this the guy that entered here with a lot of energy? But no one responded, he was really moved with compassion toward the young man, so he came closer and asked Mike what the problem was.

It took about thirty minutes before he got a reply and Mike's response was I used the money my sister sent to me to buy textbooks to bet a game and I lost the match. Ouch!! "Tough luck mister" the man replied. You know how this thing works it's not every day that we win. Don't give up, tomorrow is another day. On hearing this Mike hissed and walked out, promising himself never to visit a betting shop again.

Señor mala suerte // Cinco minutos de escritura libre

Es otro viernes, gritó Mike mientras salía apresuradamente de la cama, iba corriendo al baño, se cepillaba los dientes y se dirigía directamente a la tienda de apuestas cercana. "Cada día es un día más para arriesgarse", dijo mientras entraba a la tienda y se acercaba a la pantalla visual. "Sé que soy nuevo en las apuestas de fútbol y realmente no sé mucho al respecto, pero déjenme probar suerte nuevamente", dijo.

El tipo en el mostrador lo miró y dijo: "No te recomendaría que volvieras a jugar hoy, recuerdo las miradas de tu última semana después de que perdiste. Tómate un tiempo para un descanso y tranquilízate", pero todo lo que dijo No le ministró nada a Mike porque simplemente era demasiado entusiasta para aprender a apostar. "Hazlo por mí, hermano, ¿no es mi dinero?" dijo mike. El tipo en el mostrador parecía no tener otra opción que hacer lo que le pedían, así que jugó el partido que le había dado Mike y unos minutos después su predicción salió mal y ¿adivinen qué? Ni siquiera lo supo hasta que el tipo en el mostrador dijo "mala suerte señor, su boleto acaba de ser cortado nuevamente".

¡Dios mio! A Mike le pareció un infierno, pero no tenía a nadie a quien culpar porque le advirtieron antes de intentarlo. Se apartó silenciosamente de la pantalla y se sentó en el largo banco que había en la tienda. "Qué pasó"? Preguntó un hombre. ¿No es este el tipo que entró aquí con mucha energía? Pero nadie respondió, realmente sintió compasión hacia el joven, así que se acercó y le preguntó a Mike cuál era el problema.

Pasaron unos treinta minutos antes de recibir una respuesta y la respuesta de Mike fue que usé el dinero que mi hermana me envió para comprar libros de texto para apostar un juego y perdí el partido. ¡¡Ay!! "Mala suerte señor" respondió el hombre. Ya sabes cómo funciona esto, no todos los días ganamos. No te rindas, mañana será otro día. Al oír esto, Mike siseó y salió, prometiéndose no volver a visitar una casa de apuestas nunca más.

Lesson well learned for Mike 😂🤣... Poor Mike, I bet he needed no one to advise him again😂... We shouldn't just jump into things, we should take our time and think before doing certain things.

I think Mike learned his lesson, you can't just depend on luck. You have to be smart to place bets. Goodbye to his sister's money 😂

It is good when we yield to warning. Because if we refuse we will have no one to blame but ourselves.
