It was summer time.
I believe it was toward end of August. All and all not a super hot
summer. Sometime in town of Dannebrog. They will have an scorcher of
heat wave. So as most boys will
some how will be bored. Kicking ant
hill didn't fit their fancy. Jim one of the boys.
A few years back got bit by some weird ant, and had to go to local
hospital and have I.V drip. So now people are uneasy about ants.
The
older folks of the town. Usually attend the community church. They
called them self non-denominational. Not sure how non-denominational
they were. They was quite radical. The minster would yell and scream.
The members was no different. Actual they looked like bunch crazies.
Laying on floor kicking and caring about. The Revered Osterwell, told
his congregants
to stay away from Lady Long Magical place. That strange things goes
on, at her place. After one of his sermons. People stayed for coffee,
and treats. One of the members said he heard that the lady who lived
at magical home. Had quite a bit of compassion,
and gave a lot to local charity. It been said she covered over 80% of
the play ground equipment. The Preacher walked to front of and
clapped his hands loudly. And spoke of this Lady Long. “Her money
is tainted” The reason he was saying this she wouldn't cover the
cost of steam power for this church.
So like most
young people. These boys decided to check out the place. They stood
in front of Lady Long place, on the sidewalk. They starred hard and
long. Like they were trapped to the sidewalk, for no reason. Monk one
of the boys, said “Why don't we go and knock on the door” and Jim
replyed “What will we say if she answer the door” All four boys
stood with blank look on there face. Chance said remember Reverend
Osterwell saying about “Dark Spirits” Monk answered back
“He into putting fear into every things. He actual getting worst.
My dad went to the men meeting, and I over heard my dad talking to my
Mom. That the minster thinks government is listen to him on his
phone, My parents are even thinking of checking out some church, in
next town”.
Still they want
to knock on Lady Long place, and they want to know what was in
her home. Soon she came out, and walked down the steps. And walked
toward the maple tree, and the southwest corner of her place. She had
some large flowers of dahlia and cosmos. Soon she notice the boys
standing on sidewalk. She said to the boys “Hello, nice summer day”
and all boys at once said “Hello” back. The boys walked
over and see what she was doing. She didn't look like she came from
some other galaxy. They soon start a conversation up. They figure
they was safe. Since they was an fence between them. Plus they found
that she had husband that is professor of Creative Writing, over at
local college. Monk sister June, took and evening class from him. And
he told Lady Long, that he notice his sister book “The
Novice Writer” and that his sister is pupil of him.
Every so often,
mostly on Saturday. The boys would go and visit with Lady long and
her husband Professor Long. They travel the word and would share with
the boys there travels.
Editor Note...I copied and paste into NIGHT CAFE sentence and see what Night Cafe came up with.
