Brian sighed. Halloween props for tonight. Ridiculous.
Mum was keen. "Here’s twenty. Take your sister."
Brian scowled. Jodie pulled his arm, squirming and squealing.
Witches, vampires...rubbish! Brian screened the shop, unimpressed. Jodie found a packet of fangs. Gold!
"Ha! Made in China." Brian grabbed it, slipping a pair in his mouth.
"Rarrrrrrrhhhh!" He roared at Jodie, who screamed and hid.
"Can I help?" A delicate woman appeared. Brian gulped. She was beautiful. He tried to remove the fangs, but they stuck in his mouth. Old memories emerged.
She smiled as Brian lunged forward. A kiss was all it took.
