The Midnight Mystery
““Listen to this,” she said.
Dunkum sat down. He was glad Ellen couldn’t see his face. He was also glad she couldn’t see into his heart.
“Who was the world’s first banker?” she asked.
“I don’t know,” said Dunkum, trying to sound interested.
“Pharaoh’s daughter. She found a little prophet in the rushes to the banks.” Ellen began to laugh. “Isn’t that funny?”
“Yeah, real funny,” Dunkum said, pouting.
“What’s wrong with you?” Ellen asked, facing him.
“How can you read jo...kes and laugh when Honey’s missing?”
“God will take care of Honey,” she said.
Dunkum felt terrible. He was getting it from all sides. Excusing himself, he went to his room. Every few minutes, he could hear Ellen laughing out loud.
The joke book must be very funny, thought Dunkum.MoreLess
