FIXING UP OLD CARS

 

FIXINGUP OLD CARS

Billie loved fixing up old cars, and Lauren tolerated hisexpensive hobby until he bought a tenth one. The entire street heard the ensuingrow. The next day he was gone.

“Good riddance,” Lauren said and celebrated by inviting allthe neighbours to a barbecue. The food was delicious.

Several barbecues later Bill still hadn’t returned, andLauren had converted the cars into garden features.

“How do you grow such gorgeous flowers?” her friends asked.

Lauren inhaled the scent from a fragrant bloom. “Bone meal –lots of bone meal.”
