just like my dad
tracy wilson

2 it was still an hour before dinner, so john washed up and settled down in the old worn chair beside the phone to do what he always did after returning from a fire call. he dialed each digit and then waited. ‘hullo’ a tiny voice finally answered. john was happy to hear the sound of the voice he had heard only in his head for the past two hours. ‘daddy, have you been on a fire? ’ the inquisitive child asked. ‘as a matter of fact, i have son.’ john returned. ‘wow dad, i can’t wait until i get big, so i can fight fires too.’ ‘i know, son.’
