This microfiction for the prompt "hearing loss" reminded me of people who intentionally set out to deceive others, but only manage to hurt themselves. One may think it's clever the deception, until a real problem emerges. I share a story in the form of a ZAPFIC50 that is told in exactly 50 words. The challenge was created by @felt.buzz.

Below is my story.
"You need an ENT specialist, Willard," Lucille constantly badgered her husband.
Accompanying him, the doctor asked, "were you ever exposed to loud noises?"
A staunch protestor, he was ashamed to admit to Lucille and the doctor how he dodged military service.
Now thirty years later, his hearing loss actually materialized.

Cuando la pretensión se convierte involuntariamente en realidad
"Necesitas un otorrinolaringólogo, Willard ». Lucille acosaba constantemente a su marido.
Acompañándole, la doctora le preguntaba: «¿Has estado expuesto a ruidos fuertes?».
Acérrimo protestón, se avergonzaba de confesar a Lucille y al médico cómo había esquivado el servicio militar.
Ahora, treinta años después, su pérdida de audición se había materializado.
