CAR BOMB: A double drabble
The minute the 23rd Precinct got the report that a car bomb had
been planted on Avenue M, Josie raced out the door. Joe, wondering if
Josie would ever stop endangering herself, ran after her,
praying that the bomb squad would get there first.
But they didn't. When Joe arrived, Josie was checking out the first car.
"Sinclair! What the Hell do you think you're doing?" Joe demanded.
"Looking for the bomb," Josie said. "I'm going to find it if I have to
check out every car on this block."
"Are you out of your mind? Let the bomb squad handle this."
"I know what I'm doing," Josie insisted.
Joe realized that it was no use talking when Josie was being
stubborn. He picked her up, slung her over his shoulder, and
carried her away from the row of cars.
Just as Joe set Josie down, the car
blew up.
A shaken Josie waited for the worst lecture and
punishment Joe had ever handed down. It didn't come. Joe just held her tight, tighter than he'd ever held her before, and
choked out, "Thank God I was able to..."
And then, Joe began to cry. That was all the punishment Josie needed.
