our Daily Bread Store holiday special page 3 by ric Gustafson
Fran sipped some coffee as she noticed how beautiful the day was. As she stood just outside the front door of her business, she stared across Highway 86. She could not believe Wilma Anderson could open a rival bread store and call it ' our Daily Bread Store'. What made her more mad was that some of her regular customers were now going across the Highway to Wilma's store.
She smiled as two of her regulars were walking out. " Good morning Walt".
" Good morning Fran" the elderly man said as he held open the door for his wife. " It's a beautiful morning today".
" That it is". She smiled at her long time customers. " Thanks for coming in this morning".
Doris held up their sack. " We love your homemade white bread".
" I'm glad to hear that".
" To be honest Fran" he said as he helped his wife get into their car. " Earlier, we had to go over and get some of Wilma's special holiday bread ".
" Special holiday bread".
The elderly couple waved as they drove off.
Anger came over Fran's face. She stared across Highway 86.
