My request to a writer friend:
Respectfully submitted for your consideration;
"Umm…do you…" He twisted his faded cap in his grubby hands.
"What is it?" she snapped.
"Well… I don't… I mean, I can't…"
"You lost another one, didn't you?"
He stared at his scruffy shoes scraping in the dust as he tried to form a reply. He nodded.
"Do you think I keep new ones sitting around in case you lose one? Do you?"
"No." It was a whisper.
"Which one this time?"
"Chapter Ten, ma'am."
Her reply:
After picking herself up off the floor, and tenderly holding her side, she acquiesced to his request.
The result:
I got Chapter Ten. It was good. Thank you, Becky
