~Sappy Daze~ Day 19

An Unfortunate Cookie

The only fortunes my family is okay with wasting are the fortune cookies we 
receive after we pay the bill at a Chinese restaurant. I crush them as much 
as I can until the plastic bag it’s in pops. I take out the slip of paper 
with the red ink that stamps empty promises accompanied by lucky numbers 
that were never lucky enough to win me the lottery. Then I toss the cookie 
into the decorative koi pond. I have more fun feeding them than feeding myself.
