Another flash fiction post from the prompt at Julia's Place. The prompt this week was
I don't believe it
Lucky Day
“I don’t
believe it!”
“What,
what don’t you believe?”
“Oh at
last, after all those years toiling, some payback.”
“What?
Come on, tell me. What’ve you got there?”
“What
will I spend it on? Ooh, Jean, we could go on that cruise you we saw in Chat.”
Jean ripped
the piece of paper out of Mary’s hand.
“Oh, for
god’s sake, Mary. It’s twenty-six pounds seventy they’re giving you back, not
two thousand odd.”
“What?”
“Wear
your glasses, dear. Here.”
