357. Emma The Helpful

Scene:  A senior consultant surgeon is preparing to go out to an important hospital dinner and he’s running a bit late.  As usual he’s on his mobile sorting out some problem or other, his wife is coming and going, handing him a freshly ironed shirt, hunting for the cuff links he’s mislaid, and reminding him about the coins he’ll need to cross the toll bridge.  7 year old daughter Emma is getting in everybody’s way because she wants to be a part of the hustle and bustle.  What she says next freezes all activity at a stroke.

Emma (7):  Daddy, Mummy’s found your fuck links.
