Challenge: The letter D
My name is.......
Sometimes, when the mockery, sarcasm and physical abuse got too much, his mind would wander back to when he’d been somebody of importance. Oh, not a politician or millionaire, but a man who’d been respected, consulted. He’d had a job he loved, colleagues who’d had like interests of reading and research. Everyone in town had known him, by sight if not by name. And oddly, that was what mattered the most. When the words “wanker” or “idiot” were thrown at him when he didn’t obey quickly enough, he remembered, with warmth, that he’d once been Mr Dalton, Chief Librarian.
