• Contract 42

  Queenie noticed the bus approaching in the distance, over the brow of the hill. “That’s an old bus” she muttered to herself as she rummaged through the stack of old Lottery tickets and sweet wrappers in her handbag, looking for her bus pass.

  “Come with me!” ordered the supervisor. James, unsure of what he had done, stood and followed obediently.
