Detective Ed Greene, after seeing two suspicious men, pulled his car over to the side of the road. D.C.I. Ed Hopkins, sitting in the front passenger seat, observes the two men walk slowly towards the vehicle.

“Who are they?” with an inquisitive expression, Ed asked Greene. “Friends?”

“Meet Little and Large,” smirking as he said it, Greene responded.

“You’re kidding,” was Ed’s immediate response. “Little and Large.”

“Don’t tell me,” Ed continued. “The large one is Little. The little one is Large.”

“How did you guess?” asked Greene.

“Let’s just call it dumb luck,” Ed said. “Ten points to Gryffindor.”

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.
