I Need That Fly

Yali, following a little metallic fly humming around his Lego operation on the picnic table…

“COME HERE!… YOU LITTLE MUNCHKIN!” Yali declared, slapping a small plastic bowl on top of – what he thought – was the fly. “I need to catch that fly!”

“Why?” I asked him.

“Because he was a rainbow one,” he said, removing the bowl and returning to “stalk mode”.

“What were you going to do with him?”

“I wanted to put him in my decorations. I wanted to put him in my jar…” He turned around and noticed the flash of green sitting on the table behind him. “AH HA!”

SLAM!

Fly too fast.
