Good things gone bad
Movie Night
by bhogg
Some people are poor and don't know it. How do you measure wealth anyhow? Roberto's dad detailed cars. His mom cut hair for wealthy women. Roberto pitched in with cutting lawns. His money, as well as his dad's, went into the large jar.
On alternating Sunday's, either Dad or Mom, took Roberto to the movies. Today was Dad's turn. Roberto, so much wanted to see 'Mission Impossible.' Gathering from the jar, the two almost skipped the two blocks to the show.
Not even settled, the show was interrupted with loud pops. Roberto lay dead, strewn over with buttered popcorn.
