Model Making

Another 100 word story.

Ross was holding the tube of cement, ready for when Dad needed it. The model kit had been waiting since Christmas Day, and every day he had asked Dad if they could do it now. Until now Dad had just said “OK, let’s do it after my nap.” He knew Dad would do most of it. That didn’t matter – they were doing something together.

 

Ross loved it when they did stuff together, and Dad had always loved doing model aeroplanes. This was the first one since his 90th birthday, six months ago. Ross wanted to hang on to every moment.
