“Where does the Moon go during the day?”
“Nowhere. It’s right up there.”
“Where?”
“There.”

“I do! Look.”
“What is it?” she clutched his hand.
“Sun machine.”
“What does it do?”
“Every morning Dad cranks it up to make the Sun rise.”
“Where’s the Moon machine?”
“Don’t be a fool. Didn’t I tell you the Moon is always there? We can’t see it because the Sun is so bright.”
“Daddy’s the best.” She was impressed.
“And I know everything. Now go and get a piece of cake for me. Make some lemonade too.”

Thanks for reading! If you have a few minutes to spare I would appreciate if you could check out my previous Friday Fictioneers story post for which I missed the link up deadline – A Brighter Future. The future of the story is otherwise very dark 😀
Have a great weekend.
What a lovely cosmos
