The perfect one #FridayFictioneers

It was the sixth house on their list with Penny vociferously dismissing each of the previous ones.

Martha had been eager to not let single parenthood deprive her little girl of the luxury she deserved and more. However, this was getting a little out of control. Houses were expensive and there was no way they could settle on one if Penny kept discarding options after options on a whim.

The pink walls, green windows, orange tiled roof, and the tiny garden made Penny let out a squeal of delight. It was the perfect doll house that she was looking for.

  9. I was thinking it was like the scene out of Miracle on 34th street--with the little girl desperately wanting Santa to find her the perfect, picket-fence home. And then you switched it up and threw me all a-kilter. Nice side step.
