Murder in the Neighborhood

It Started On A Drizzly And Cold Morning. I’M Just Settling Down In My Easy Chair Ready To Enjoy That First Sip Of Morning Coffee When My Front Door Starts Being Banged On. It Was So Loud It Reminded Me Of A Scene From A Movie When The Ss Comes To A Jewish Home. I Jumped Up And Hurried To The Door Only To Find A Young Man And A Small Girl Curled Under His Arm Asking-No Pleading To Use My Phone. I Step To One Side And Let Them Enter-No Questions Asked. As The Young Man Walks By Me He Whispers So The Little Girls Can’T Hear. “I Think My Wife Has Been Murdered”.
