Kneeling on the cold kitchen tiles, I empty the laundry basket, searching for his trousers.
“Are you insane or what?” was his response when I’d quizzed him after work. He thought he could say anything to get off the hook, but I wasn’t convinced.
“Don’t lie to me.” I was on a quest for the truth.
I find the heavy black trousers and immediately smell his deceit. I dig my hand into the pocket, pulling out the evidence which confirms my suspicions. It reads:
Large cod and chips…£7.99
I sigh. He just wasn’t as committed to this diet as I was.
Love this! Made me smile, well done.
Thanks Stella 🙂 I’m glad you liked it.
Betting I’m not the only one surprised and amused by the ending. Nicely done!
Thanks Ephra 🙂 So glad it had that effect!
I got a good laugh out of the ending, we’ve all been there!
