David unlocked the door to Middleham Motors for the first time in three years. The white and brown tile floor once immaculate now littered with papers and garbage. Stale air and dust greeted David, as he made his way to the reception desk. He grinned at the undisturbed space. With effort he slid the desk to the side to reveal one brown tile amid the white. From his pocket he removed a chisel and small sledgehammer. The brown and surrounding white tiles were removed to reveal a metal box. David transferred the contents to a duffel bag and left.
Doh!
Now next week you need to tell us what’s in the duffel bag!
Nicely done.
I like the Homer Simpson comment. Thanks for reading.
Dear Cole,
I love a patient man. Well told.
Aloha,
Doug
Thanks Doug, patience is a virtue.
Great story. Of course we really really want to know what’s in it. This would make a fine start to something longer.
Claire
I agree it will be longer. Thanks
Nice cliff-hanger at the end, Cole, you tease! However, now you’ve left room for our imaginations to work, which isn’t all bad.

Maybe I’ll discuss what was in the bag next week. Thanks for reading.
Ooh, way to leave us hanging…
You know what they say, always leave them wanting more.
Dear Cole,
Quite the ending. Of course I want to know what’s in the box. Nicely done.
shalom,
Rochelle
Thanks maybe this week.
Three years eh? Where’s he been, I wonder. Intriguing.
You are the only one who commented on the three year stint. Nice catch
