Little Sister
One of my first evenings back from overseas, my
girl's understanding parents left us alone in the
living room.
Naturally, we did not talk all the time.
In the midst of a kiss, I noticed her little sister in her
nightgown watching us from the doorway. "If you
will be a good girl and go to bed, I will give you a
quarter," I said to her.
Without taking the bribe or saying a word, she ran
off but soon was back again.
"Here is a dollar," she said. "I wanna watch."
