Vocabulary 209 - B2

Herbert was having a bad day. He felt homeless without his usual afternoon nap on the sofa.

Margot found him staring blankly at the TV.

“Herbert, are you alright? You look like you need a pill,” she said, concerned.

He sighed dramatically. “It’s just… work. Mr. Abernathy expects me to check the safety protocols again. It’s a metaphor for endless paperwork, Margot! Endless!”

Margot chuckled. “Well, maybe a short walk to the Corner Shop will help. We need milk anyway. And Mr. Peterson, the clerk, always has a funny story.”

Herbert considered this. “And maybe a donut… or two?”

Margot rolled her eyes. “Just milk, Herbert.”

At the Corner Shop, Mr. Peterson was indeed telling a story. "...and I told her, 'If I see one more squirrel in my bird feeder, I'm moving to Antarctica!'"

Herbert chuckled, already feeling a little better. He loved Mr. Peterson's stories. Then, Herbert smelled them and instantly identified the fresh jelly donuts sitting at the counter.

Margot caught his eye. “Milk, Herbert. Remember?”

Herbert groaned, but he grabbed the milk. Sometimes, even the sweet smell of donuts couldn't beat Margot's 'look'.
