the $ 2.15 Thanksgiving dinner page 2 by ric Gustafson
Martin ladled mashed potatoes into a large pan. The kitchen door opened. Sunday ran in with fear in her eyes.
" The carved turkey is gone".
" What!" Mr Morgan exclaimed as he looked up from coffee pots he was filling. " I just put three pans into the serving wells".
" I think I saw Martin's friend running out the door with them".
" Oh no!" Martin replied. He ran out the kitchen door. " Lucas". He ran toward the front door. He watched as a shopping cart went over a nearby hill.

Mr Morgan ran out the kitchen door. " Martin, what just happened?".
" I'm sorry Mr Morgan" Martin quietly said as he ran out the front door. " I need to go find my friend".
Mr Morgan sat down in a chair. He covered his face with his hands. " Now what am I gonna do?". A tear came down his face. " Our residents are coming soon and I have no turkey to serve them".
Just then, the front door opened. A tall lanky bearded man wearing white walked in. " Has the Thanksgiving meal started yet?".
