Drabble of the Day
Jake Randolph in "The Naked Beat" Pt. 20
The Naked Beat
"Excuse me, sir," the man said as he reached the bar. "Have you ever seen this girl?"
I took the photo from the man and put it under the lamp on the bar. It was a black-and-white picture of a young girl, maybe 16. She looked like the all-American girl-next-door. She had light hair, difficult to identify by the photo, but judging how milky her skin appeared, I would say a natural redhead. She looked so familiar.
"It's possible I've seen her before. Who is she?"
He looked up with teary eyes. "She's my daughter."
