No Curb Jumping!
#WritcoStoryPrompt38
The two girls jumped over the hopscotch they had drawn on the curb with white chalk. It was their favorite game and they would be at it for hours. The mother of Sarah, the first girl, said, "No, no, no! You don't draw it on a curb!" Sarah's friend, Darla asked, "We don't?" Sarah's mother said, "You don't jump over curbs either, you'll get hurt! I used to do that and when I did one day, I fell and hit my knee on the curb." Both girls were silent. Sarah's mother led the girls to the driveway. She drew a new hopscotch. The girls played until sundown. Darla went home, while Sarah went into the house for the night.
