When you've finished leaving a comment (hint, hint), please had back to Six Sentence Sunday for more links.
Set up reminder: Hattie has grown up in an orphanage, answered an ad she found at the mercantile, and has just finished interviewing with the mister of the household and is now meeting the wife.
Mr. Franklin
yanked his watch from his pocket again and checked the time. “I’ll leave you
two to discuss the matter of caring for the children. I have business to tend involving
the sale of the house and furniture.” Stepping closer to his wife, he leaned
toward her ear. “She comes from the orphanage with no recommendations. Don’t
confuse particulars with pity.”
Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back next week. I love sharing, and I'm definitely hooked on a few of the stories offered by others.
Intriguing 6!
ReplyDeleteWell there's a straight talking man, great snippet!
ReplyDeleteInteresting six! Hope the wife is a little kinder to her!
ReplyDeleteI'm disliking Mr. Franklin based on this. Hoping his wife is the nice one in the marriage.
ReplyDeleteIf this is from Hattie's POV, he;s not whispering, either.
ReplyDeleteOh, dear, doesn't sound like an auspicious beginning to her interview. Very nice six!
ReplyDeleteGreat dialogue! Well done. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope she can find some happiness here. I have my doubts...
ReplyDeleteWhat a meanie-pants!
ReplyDeleteNice snippet :)
That doesn't bode well for Hattie, methinks. Interesting six.
