Short Story - No School for My Kids – Nan E. Fagan
January 9, 2009 Filed in: Short Story |Short Story Contest
By: Nan E. Fagan
Twenty minutes later, after finishing breakfast on a warm and sunny Friday morning in mid-April, Kathy DiScala was getting her kids ready for homeschool, when she suddenly heard a knock on her door. “I wonda who that is this early in the mornin!” Kathy asked in her heavy Brooklyn accent as she went to answer the door. She was wearing a bright yellow bathrobe with a matching towel over her head, as she called out to her two kids, “Jake, Kelly, get started on your schoolwork right now!”
“Mrs. DiScala?” a huge burly bald man had asked.
“Yeah! Whatta ya want!” Kathy responded sarcastically.
