PAD Challenge 29-3 total blank


Totaled Pinto

Shortly after they were married
my sister and her husband had a fight
and my sister came home.
Her husband was apologetic
and determine he was coming that night.
Dad told him to wait till morning
because it was snowing
and driving would be dangerous.
But my brother-in-law insisted.
The next morning,  he arrived by taxi
with his arm in a sling.
He had totaled his Ford Pinto.
“Don’t say anything,” he told my dad.
Dad didn’t, at least, not within his hearing.
