Unexpected Geocache

PHOTO PROMPT © Ted Strutz

Peter and Billy crunched over the frosty ground through the woods.  This geocaching lark had been Peter’s idea to spend quality time with his son.  Billy had been keen, but the early rise and freezing temperatures had diminished his enthusiasm over the last ten minutes.  They’d been ‘hunting’ for two hours and Peter decided the next find would be their last.  He didn’t want to discourage Billy from coming again.  It had been fun!

“Wow,” Billy said rushing excitedly to the jalopy in the clearing.  He stopped suddenly, face ashen.

“Dad,” he stammered, “someone’s cached a hand, a human hand.”

Passionate, or Obsessional Bully?

Miss Devine could sense waves of unease flowing from Ella who was fidgeting amid the group of girls stamping their feet, shoulders hunched, arms wrapped around their adolescent bodies attempting to combat the freezing air. She wished there was another way to sort the hockey team members rather than by shirt colour.  She wouldn’t prolong her discomfort.  Ella’s father’s passion for Liverpool Football Club and his antipathy to Everton and all things blue was well-known but the rumoured abuse of his daughter if she dared to wear blue clothing was deeply worrying. 

 “Ella, you’re playing for greens against the yellows.”
