SHR S Blend Story
Sharon woke up to a shrill sound outside her window. It was her brother playing with a loud whistle. Mom was using the paper shredder in the office, and the noise made Sharon give a shoulder shrug. Today was special because Dad was making tiny shrimp for dinner, Sharon’s favorite food. She hoped her clothes wouldn’t shrink in the wash like last time.
After breakfast, Sharon went to help Dad in the garden. They needed to water the garden shrub that was starting to shrivel in the hot sun. Sharon saw a tiny shrew run under the plants. She let out a loud shriek when it surprised her, and Dad laughed. He told her to be shrewd about watching where she stepped in the shrubby area. A fog shroud was lifting as the sun got higher.
At lunch, Sharon’s aunt came over. She was a shrewd businesswoman who always gave good advice. Sharon showed her the holy shrine she made for her rock collection. Her aunt had brought some metal shrapnel pieces from her factory that Sharon could use for art projects. Sharon’s little brother came in with shrunk clothes after playing in the sprinkler. He had a shrewish look on his face about it.
For dinner, Dad cooked the shrimp just right. Sharon shrewdly saved some for her lunch tomorrow. Her brother let out a shrieking sound when he saw dessert was his favorite ice cream. Mom had to shred some chocolate on top for a special treat. Sharon thought about the shrews in the garden and wondered if they were having a good dinner too. As she fell asleep, Sharon heard the shrieking wind outside, but she wasn’t scared. She knew tomorrow would be another day for shrewd adventures.
