Words

Daria was sitting on the couch when Quinn came running into the living room.

“A.D?”

“Yes Quinn?”

“I need your help. I can’t figure this word out.”

“What is it?”

“Well it starts with f, ends with k, and has uc in the middle. Do you know what it is?”

Daria didn’t have any idea how to reply.

“Um. I uh.”

Quinn looked at the crossword puzzle again.

“Oh never mind. It’s so obvious now. It's firetruck.”

As Quinn left the room Daria leaned forward, put her head in her hands, and breathed a sigh of relief.

As usual, Daria belongs to MTV. This was written for my own amusement.
