Don't ask (fiction)

 

 

 

Just don't

that was the advice of the Manager at the grocery store

my first job 

 

Don't ask about 

about a customer's clothes or 

what they are buying, none of that

 

Just don't 

it just leads to long conversations, he said,

ones you don't want

 

Don't ask

but one day I had to ask Mrs.Henderson about the leash she carried around

the one without a dog attached 

 

I wish I hadn't
