Is it here? (Friday Fictioneers)
“Did you check? Did my package arrive yet?”
“What package?”
“The box… the books. My books… I’ve been stuck in here for months. I need to escape and since I can’t actually leave here, I want my books. Fantasy, mystery, science fiction, supernatural. Escape!”
“Well, go and have a look.”
“… dear…? How long has this box been sitting out here?”
“Oh, it’s arrived then? That’s good, darling. You’ll be happier now.”
“It’s postmarked weeks ago… Has this…? Did you… ? Why didn’t you tell me it was here?”
“Darling, why are you holding that rolling pin like that? Darling…”

Oops ! Poor husband. Next time he won’t miss a thing 🙂
Hahaha! Hope he learns!
Oh dear! I hope he doesn’t need a nurse soon.
He should have told her methinks!
Yep. I can very well imagine this anger.
However…
She should have gone for eBooks.
LOL good point!
Haha. That’ll be last time he forgets about any package. Great take on the prompt, Laurie
I hope so hahaha…
Never come between an avid reader and their books! 😉
Oh sooooooo true!
This is a case of you can’t win for losing. I can feel the frustration on both sides here.
That was cruel and unusual punishment!! So not cool.
Books! Who leaves them outside!
Definitely NOT me!!!
Oh, no! Pancake …
And … well … I think that’s justified self-defense.
See I think so too !
Dear Laurie,
Now that takes communication breakdown to a new level. 😀
