CLEO
by Sharon H. Greathouse
“Cleo’s gone!”
“Oh, Auntie Jen, she hasn’t gone far – she won’t want to leave that purple necklace thing you had for her.”
“No, no – I know she’s gone. She’s mad at me ‘cause I called her a fat cow last night.”
“For cripes sake, you’re 95 years old and you’re talking about a stupid invisible pet.”
“Just because you don’t see her doesn’t mean she’s not real.”
“Well, Auntie Jen, I guess Cleo will be back when all the invisible cows come home!”
