Brotherly Love, by Ann-Louise Truschel

19/8/2017

 
"I really like your brother," George's wife said.

"Well, I guess even tough guys have something to recommend them." said George.

"I think Uncle Harry's kinda' sweet, Dad," said little Fay.

"I wouldn't say 'sweet' exactly," said her brother, "but he's OK, I guess."

"Well, in any case, dinner's over," said George's wife. "Kids, clear the table, rinse the dishes, and put them into the dishwasher. George, help me get the rest of Harry back into the freezer."
