Drabble Saga 21: Hertz So Good

Printer-friendly version

"Frankie Al Nez will pay my rent, pay for my schooling, give me an allowance and all I have to do is dress like this" --Davey gestured at his tight leather dress-- "and read to him?"

"Or whatever else he wants," agreed Larry.

"That part scares me."

Larry shrugged. "It's going to be better if you take the deal."

"I don't have a choice, do I?"

"Not really."

"What else might he want?"

"No idea. But the boss isn't a bad man."

"Could have fooled me," Davey muttered. Still, he hadn't been hurt -- except for the waxing, that did hurt.

Do it!

Or you'll get wacked..., I mean waxed. What to do, what to do?

I'm an unconvinced drabblist usually, Lainie. Several of them have
been superbe though, which keeps me looking. I hate to say I kind of
rolled my eyes when I first saw what you were doing. Now I look for
the story, because of all the great work you've done, and because it's
really very good.

Thank you,

Sarah Lynn
