Coveted
“The culprit wasn’t an attack from the Long Island werewolves or my plan to hide all my ornaments from Nick. On my way to work I passed a garage sale. And those heartless people had put all their Christmas stuff out for sale. Their loss was my gain.
Eager to initiate the hunt, I pulled over to the side of the road and joined the other early-morning shoppers.
The house was a rickety one off the side of the road, with dirty old shingles dangling off the roof, warped siding, and a porch large enoug...h to host a Stravinsky family reunion. They lived not far off the highway and had plenty of parking spots on their run-down lawn. Of course, the condition of their home didn’t deter me from stalking their goods. I gingerly walked across their muddy lawn, undeterred in my goal to reach the house.
At first I tried to walk in the street, but for the sake of not turning into roadkill I’d spotted on the side of the road, I braved the curb to reach the wares.
Part of me pleaded with myself to get back in the car to reach work on time.MoreLess
