Mystery in a Candy Dish. by leather 75 Words Flash Fiction contest entry Artwork by VMarguarite at FanArtReview.com |
I refilled my candy dish with fresh jelly beans and put the lid back on. Later that day, I went for one, but couldn't believe my eyes. Instead of the pretty beans, I found a pale glob of them massed together. The lid was still on. I was totally dumbfounded. I asked my young son why the jelly beans looked that way. He answered, "I licked them all so no one else would eat them."
