“I swear to God, Stella, if your damned dog pisses in my shoes one more time…”
Stella shot a withering glance over the top of her book and scratched behind Toby’s ears, not bothering to answer.
Lou stepped into the bedroom, brandishing the offending shoe. “Did you hear me?”
“The whole building heard you, Lou. But here's the thing. This is Toby's home, not yours. He doesn't like you, and he's a really good judge of character. Get your pissy shoes and everything else you’ve left here without asking and go.”
Stella raised Unf*ck Your Boundaries and turned the page.
I wrote this story as a response to the #HumansBeing100WordChallenge on Instagram. The challenge, run jointly by @doominyouafavor and pams_random_reviews (she came up with the idea), was inspired by Jimmy’s book, Humans, Being. You can follow the link to buy it on Amazon (No, it’s not an affiliate link. I don’t make any money if you buy it, but you should, because it’s a great book, full of gritty, real-life, 100-word stories.)
you channeled a little Jimmy in this one.
