Missing
"Oooh, Mum, look, look at this wicked paperweight! There's a whole little world inside, like you could just...."
"Don't be silly, Andrew, you're old enough to know better. Where are you - Andrew!?"
"Ahh, Madam, such a lovely paperweight, exquisite craftsmanship, isn't it? The woman I bought that from swore Faberge himself could never make anything so intricate, she tried to tell me some nonsense about elves, or something like that."
I wrote this as a six sentence story. I hope you enjoy it.

Oh...I loved this little piece, Ray. I was prepared to read a long one and then here it was a shortie. :-)
Tomorrow, I'll come and read another.
Thank you for your lovely words and like Lehane's, it is always a pleasure to read your stories.
I like how this one makes me wonder if the little world in that paperweight is, in fact, real. And maybe, LOL, better than ours.
Great six sentence story.
