“Chapter One “FRANKIE FOSTER!” My sister’s voice came shrilling down the stairs. “Was this you?”
Uh-oh. Trouble!
Guardedly, I said, “Depends what you’re talking about.”
“This. This is what I’m talking about!”
She stood, quivering with rage, on the top step, waving a bit of rag. Well, at first glance it looked like a bit of rag. At second glance I could see that it was in fact her pink-and-white stripy shirt that I had kindly ironed for her just the other day. Unfortunately, there had been a slig...ht problem with the iron; it had got too hot, or something. Obviously faulty. I find that a lot of the things I have to deal with turn out to be faulty. It is somewhat discouraging.
“Well?” Angel thumped impatiently on the banister rail.
I said, “Well—”
“I know it was you, so don’t bother trying to deny it!”
I hadn’t been going to deny it. I suppose I have my failings, same as anyone else, but I do try to be truthful whenever I can.
