The Right Shade

“Hi, Knit-Knots!”

“I’m very busy, Movers,” their neighbor frowned.

“Doing what?” asked Mover Rich.

“Deciding what color to repaint my office.”

He held up two cards. The Movers looked at the cards, then at the walls.

“…Isn’t your office already that color?” asked Mover Dave.

Knit-Knots frowned again. “This is beige,” he explained. “This is taupe, and my office is khaki.”

The Movers leaned in closer.

“I still can’t tell the difference,” said Mover Scott.

“And they’re so boring,” added Mover Smitty. “Maybe you should try a nice blue?”

“Ooh, or red.”

“Green!”

“Yellow!”

“Out!” yelled Knit-Knots, and they went.
