Today’s words: dare – fare – stare
A father, tired of his supposed troubled teen,
made the decision to send his son up north
to live with relatives.
Before leaving the bus terminal he bid his son
farewell.
The naive teen made a huge error in judgment
when he sported his wallet filled with six months
of saved wages from a part-time job.
An unkempt man, a con-artist, stared prior to
stealthily approaching the kid with a request if
possible he could spare a few bucks for a meal.
When the unsuspecting teen opened his wallet
the man snatched the young boy’s cash then
fled the scene.
Although shocked how someone dare play such
a nasty trick the teen somehow managed to stay
calm.
He was thankful the fare for the long bus ride
ahead had already been paid in full.
Fortunately, he still had pocket change and
was able to purchase some vending machine
snacks to tide him over before arrival at his
destination.
