Random Drabble Word: “Radical”…

Donald Grainger, with a half-finished BLT from Hammersmith’s Kosher Deli, returns home.

“A nice glass of Merlot,” pondered Grainger, “will go nicely with the rest of this BLT.”

Grainger, not how the day had unfolded, reflected on what he had been doing. The day, with a quiet walk in the park, had started off marvellously.

Before heading home, even though it’s Wednesday, Grainger stopped by the local deli for his usual sandwich. Today, surprisingly, Grainger met someone refreshingly new. Raymond Carter.

“There is something about Carter’s approach to life,” thought Grainger, “that feels a tad radical. I like his style.”

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.

Further reading for your consideration…
