Forget-Me-Not



Grace was telling one of her stories to the whole family, when she turned to Grandpa.

“And so there I am, standing there with a whole bag of oranges, and Dad says to the three of them…”

Grandpa, like the rest of the family, waited for the punchline. After a few uncomfortable seconds, Grace nudged her father.

“Go on, give that little speech again.”

Grandpa licked his lips a little, then after a moment shrugged.

Grace shook her head sadly then continued on with the story.

Taking over older humans seems the best way forward for the invasion, Grandpa decided.
