Helen asked a locksmith to fit a lock to a small kitchen drawer.
He asked whether it contained jewellery, cash or important documents.
Helen said none of those.
Then her husband came in and asked whether anyone had seen the scissors….
The locksmith measured Helen’s kitchen drawer.
He asked whether she’d be keeping valuables in it.
Helen said yes.
Jewellery?
No.
Cash?
No.
Her husband, Paul, came in looking for the scissors.
Helen handed them over and held out her other hand.
Paul looked puzzled.
I’ll bring them back.
That’s what you said about the tape, the batteries and the little screwdriver.
The locksmith asked whether the lock was to keep Paul out.
Helen shook her head.
He can borrow anything he likes.
Then what’s the lock for?
Paul handed her his car keys. She locked them in the drawer.
It’s where his deposit waits.
