The Magic Eclipse


As the stream from the gulf seemed placid the twilight card was dealt to Hal and Dale.

“So, what is the twilight card claiming tonight?” Dale asked.

“Apparently the magic eclipse is a winner,”

“That is absurd a magic eclipse is a long shot,” Dale was very concerned, “if this is God’s promise we will be out of the money.”

Scratching his head Hal agreed, “such boldness for the twilight card to show a message with a large economic transaction.”

“If this takes place a triple jeopardy will happen and all the pick threes will end up on the ground,”

“But Dale we are only two who would be the third in jeopardy?”

As the hours past they pondered the possibility the other person in the triple jeopardy equation when a stranger approached them and interpreted the profit see. Within a second, he responded answering,

“My boys Hal and Dale I am the Candymeister, I have heard a possible solution the third would be a maiden worth claiming.”

“Who?” Hal and Dale said in unison.

“Muguruza,”

“Mug uh whosa?” Hal and Dale inquired.

“Queen of the rackets,” the Candymeister replied as thunder clasped above and the South Florida diner’s lights flickered, “Lluva as the Queen would say has decided to put on a show outside.”

“They are getting ready to rumble with the magic eclipse,” Hal scratched his head again, “trying to stay out of the money.”

“Dale, the lightning, thunder and water show could be considered a magic eclipse,”

Stopping scratching his head Hal smiled, “that is right, and it would be a winning entertaining visual, fairly stated ‘a magic eclipse’.”
