A Little ProblemA Story by Janyce Helen Van Es“Give me the wheel, you jerk,” Janyce shoved Johnny’s drunken torso to the left, causing the jam-packed motor home to sway. “I hate your driving,” he spat.

We’ll never make it home with you behind the wheel.” Janyce grabbed for the keys and pulled them out. The RV coasted down the hill. Both noticed lights flashing in the rearview mirror. “Let me see your license and insurance,” muttered the officer with pen and pad. Janyce handed him both.
