“No, no, no. You’ve got it all wrong. Haven’t you heard a word I said?”
Roy shoved the sketchpad towards the artist. As Roy stood, his chair toppled backward and bounced on the cement floor.
Startled, the sketch artist lunged, saving the sketchpad from the chair’s fate.
“Mr. Neary. Please. I’m trying.”
“Try harder,” Roy yelled and then, regretting his rough tone, he wiped his hand across his forehead.
“Ok,” he said, calmer now, “How about less ‘The Day the Earth Stood Still’ and more ‘E.T.’ with Christmas lights?”
The sketch artists beamed, turned the sketchbook’s page and began again.
