Benny waited all this year for a red envelope from his grandmother, but it snowed, and she'd gone somewhere with her new beau on a horse, no less. Sure, he was furious; he needed that money while his little sister Daisy was weeping over this mystery because it was getting colder as the blanket of snow covered their street. "What if she never comes home?" It was the worst Chinese New Year ever for the two, but Nana was off in warm Miami sampling Sex on the Beach drinks.

Genial , Te mando un beso.
ReplyDeleteOh dear
ReplyDeleteSuch an enjoyable story! A 5 line success!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYes, that's bad... although, Chinese New Year with Sex on the Beach cocktails sounds exciting.
ReplyDeleteYeah my guess too π
DeleteInteresting story.
ReplyDeleteI hope Grandma doesn't forget to deliver the red envelope.
My grandchildren love receiving those red envelopes for the Chinese New Year (they live in Macau)
Wow, that gallivanting (and galloping!) granny is a piece of work. I hope that Benny and Daisy get the money they need -- and solve that mystery. I'm amazed by how much story you can pack into five sentences. π§§π΄ππΉπ§§π°
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear that you still have that cough -- and that you had to put off having your tooth pulled. It's always something, isn't it? Feel better soon! πππ
