Not much else to say besides this. Enjoy!
Winter’s Chill, Drabble Four: Can’t Deny The Past
The annual party was a pain, but Reid went anyway. It let him prove his ability to socialize, which his coworkers doubted. Young guy like you, you should be out on the town, not in the office!
This year, Reid even made an effort to impress the clients who attended. He avoided clients like the plague, but one night couldn’t hurt.
Two glasses of champagne later, the impossible: “Garwin? Any relation to the Garwin family over in Ipswich?”
He froze. He had come to California to avoid this.
The client was waiting. “Distantly,” Reid mumbled.
He left two minutes later.
This one was surprisingly difficult to get right. I had to twist it all over the place to get the material into 100 words. Oh, and I have no idea what kind of job Reid has. Something with an office, and annual parties. With nosy coworkers. *Shrug*
