"Mosquito in the Car"

by Lucille Lever © 2008

Dad is driving. I am sitting in the back.  There is a mosquito flying in the car.  I want the mosquito to go, but dad always says, "Don't open the window when I'm driving!"

And he is right.  So I don't open the window.

Now the mosquito is on Dad's ear.  I want to hit the mosquito, but Dad always says, "Don't touch me when I'm driving!"

And he is right.  So I don't.  I don't do anything.

The mosquito sits on his ear for a long time.

Later, Dad scratches his red ear, "I think something bit me," he says.

And he's right.  But I don't do anything. But very, very quietly, I say, "I know."

Write about someone in your family.
