Drabble 302 | Insurance
Today’s drabble challenge word is “insurance”.
Today’s drabble challenge twist is that it must being with “They are smarter than we thought”.
Drabbles are short — only and exactly 100 words (or with a double-drabble, 200 words).
Whether you are delighted or dismayed by what you read, let me know you’ve been here by highlighting, clapping, and commenting! Thank you!
They are smarter than we thought, and yet dumber than they seem.
I mean, just consider all those years of long hours and hard work, clambering up that sodding career ladder… not to mention all the snot, nappies, and tantrums.
It’s all there in the much-loved swimming pool, the pencil markings inching up the kitchen doorframe, the crappy finger paintings on the fridge, the wonky pottery.
In fact, the Harrisons spent 27 years creating a treasured family home.
However, it took just one heart attack and no life insurance to transform it into a monstrous six-story apartment block.
Thank you for reading my drabble.
