Six Sentence Sunday: Revelation

Alice and her not-quite-human new buddy share that moment.

“I hate being the first one to explain," he grumbled. "But you are ready to know, so here it is, sweet Alice: I’m an angel.” He tacked on a reassuring grin, like an extra ruffle on an especially silly prom dress.

Alice bleated a laugh. Or it might have been a hiccough. "Of course you are."

Thanks for visiting and reading. I really appreciate all this support and camaraderie. Feel like one of the gang. And speaking of the gang, will you just look at all them goodies on the Six Sentence Sunday site this week?
