This week’s prompt:… I need to remember… +100 words
HOME SAFE
“Where are my gloves?”
Mrs. K’s fingers combed through her hair. “You’re burning up.”
“Can’t leave without my gloves.”
“They’re tucked into your belt. Here.”
He rubbed puffy eyes. “I need to remember something. What?”
“Make it back in time for breakfast?”
“No-no. Where’s the new GPS?”
“In the sleigh, dear. Take Nelson tonight.”
Kris pulled on his bottom lip. “Nelson?”
“The doctor treating you.”
“Don’t think so…”
“What if you get drowsy? Or need meds to get through tonight?
“You’re mighty persuasive, Mrs. K. Ho, ho, ho—but no.”
A green and black blur dashed out the door.
Safe home, Kris. Safe home.
