He Was No Longer Welcome

She made sure of it

Today’s random word is Teach.

Because drabbles are short, please consider staying on this page for at least 30 seconds. I’d love to know you were here. 💕

Clarissa wanted to teach him a lesson. What right did he have to come into their home, eat food, and demand attention?

She wanted him gone, sent back to where he came from. Wherever that was? She never asked. She didn’t care, so long as he left them alone.

Clarissa schemed and orchestrated a brilliant plan to eliminate him from their lives. Mom and Dad wouldn’t notice him gone if she executed it right.

Scoop him up while he’s sleeping. Then, take him out with the trash and leave him by the curb.

There. All done.

So long, baby brother.

Remember to visit Fiction Shorts often daily so you don’t miss my daily drabbles and those of other deserving drabblers.

Nancy Oglesby writes, “If you are unfamiliar with a drabble, it is a fiction story of exactly 100 words.”

To make the challenge more interesting, each day, she gives a random word prompt.

Don’t miss out on today’s drabble.
