Welcome to Rainbow Snippets weekend!
The dinner from hell (in Carl’s opinion) continues as Carl finds out Ben is an artist… “The Hippie Whisperer“… A little longer than six sentences for context.
—————————————————————————————
“Is the shock factor a basis for your art and your attire?” I asked.
“Dad!” Chester protested, but he started this, so he’d just have to deal.
“It’s a simple question. I’m sure he can handle it, can’t you, Ben?” I wanted to find a chink in his armor, so I wasn’t the only one off balance.
Ben just smiled at me, not even fazed by my rudeness. He addressed Chester. “It’s okay. I meet people like your dad all the time.”
“Oh, this could be good,” my son chortled. Turncoat.
“I beg your pardon?” I said.
“I’m sure I was clear,” Ben replied.
“I’m sure you weren’t.”
“Let the man talk, Dad.”
“You’re not helping, Judas.”
