Flash Fiction #307: Another Day, Another Drabble


Thomas Day was surprised when the college asked to speak about his past.  

After all, he'd had a mundane life and he hadn't even married until his 40's when he'd chanced to meet a distant cousin of the famous Laura Doller, whose marriage to his own distant cousin had been quite a drama a couple decades before.

That wasn't his life.  He told his tale of life selling shoes, and of a quiet family life.


"But what about the feuds?" someone asked at the end.


"Ah," he said with a quick nod.  "That was another Day and another Doller."
