I sat at the kitchen table. My father walked in the room, he smiled and said,
“Would you be a dear and pop me a bag of popcorn?”
I cringed and blushed,
“I finished the last bag last night. I told you that? Didn’t I?”
He didn’t move, but he stared at me. I could see a part of his soul dying within him as he realized the truth. There would be no popcorn tonight. I giggled nervously. He reached for his keys and looked at me as I had betrayed his trust.
Based on true events.
