When Maths Can’t Fix It

Today, we are joining in on Esther’s challenge, Can You Tell a Story In…

Esther says, “So, can you tell a story in 75 words using the following words in it somewhere: coffee, Lamborghini, eyebrow, tradition, chips, socks, maths.”

Here is my attempt:

I carried my coffee outside and found the neighbor arguing with his Lamborghini like it had betrayed him. He lifted an eyebrow at me, then blamed the whole scene on a long‑standing tradition of bad luck. I believed him when I saw the chips crushed under his shoe and the mismatched socks. He said he’d tried maths to fix the problem. I said that explained why nothing worked.

Thank you so much for reading, liking, lurking, and commenting! You are important!
