I was heading out the door with Ephraim's backpack on, feeling for all the world like those desolate-looking children who walk down the road and shiver or skip waiting for the school bus. But lo, there was a box before the door!
This is the thing that will make me NOT have to go to the library any more!
"Please don't take super long," Ephraim said, in tones that suggested he was hesitant to ask me to hurry, but really wanted my help to install the thing in the box.
"I won't." I said.
The End
