A drabble is a short work of fiction of precisely one hundred words in length. The purpose of the drabble is brevity, testing the author's ability to express interesting and meaningful ideas in a confined space.
I just checked in to see what you were doing and remembered I had read this entry before. I neglected to leave a note. I giggled at your quote for faming the shirt. Isn't grand that it is your own store and you can do what you did? LOL Hope you are having a grand vacation.
“Do you frame rugby jerseys?” the customer pulled the signed Allblacks shirt out of her bag and spread it on the counter.
Marie was able to conceal her wince, and replied, “Certainly. I hand-sew the jersey onto conservation matboard and use UV filtering glass to preserve the value of your collector's item, it prices out at $760.00.
The customer's smile faltered.
With a nod, Marie added, “Plus a plaque with match details… that’s another $25.
“Hmmm… I'll have to think about it.”
As the client left, Marie silently cheered at another successful scrummage won - she hated framing rugby jerseys.
