Desk Sergeant Richard Gough stepped away from the door so Constable George Harris could watch the action.

“That a boy,” Harris said. “It looks like Joseph Middleton is enjoying the ride.”

“The faggot is too high to recognise he’s getting dogged,” as he sinisterly smiled, Gough said. “Jake knows what he’s doing and he’s doing it well.”

Harris, looking at what Gough was holding in his hand, couldn’t stop himself from choking with laughter. Gough had printed a new sign for Middleton’s cell door. The sign, upper case lettering, consisted of two words. There is no ambiguity whatsoever.

A drabble consists of exactly 100 words. The read time is short. Please remain with the article for at least 30 seconds. I would appreciate it if you would leave a comment, highlight anything of interest, and clap.
