The man in my life's first words to me were, I thought you could ride a horse. I saw you fall off.
Not so, my horse had pulled away and bolted for the gate.
After that I vowed never to speak to the insufferable man again in my life, but he kept popping up, and to get rid of him I went out with him. I was going to teach him a lesson, but we ended up getting married, then divorced, then back together again.
We're older and wiser now and look after each other, treating each other as equals.

How's that, and at first count, there were 100 words.

100 word story-
Angelina and Jason were in love, and Angelina smiled at the thought of his embrace. With him, Angelina thought that she could bear any hardship and trials that life might throw her way, be the burden of it ever so great.
Nevertheless, Angelina's parents had chosen Randolph, son of her father's wealthiest business client to be their son-in-law.Therefore , Angelina and Jason had agreed to meet and together they would elope. After what seemed to be to Angelina to be an an age he arrived. As soon as he arrived, they were off and before their flight was discovered they were already man and wife. Love triumphed.

Here's another go
The cat kept sitting on the mat to a degree that we took him to the vet, who said the cat had developed MSCD (Mat-sitting Compulsive Disorder) and told us that we should take poor old Tom (the cat) to an Animal Psychiatrist.
The Animal Psychiatrist, who happened to be the vet's brother-in-law, tried to hide the glossy holiday brochures on his desk. He gave us a prescription for Tom,warned us that us that although it would take full effect by the weekend, in the first few days Tom's fur'd turn green and fall out.Then he charged us.Ouch!
