An Odd Number

By

Jake Bible

Seventeen rabbits.

An odd number. 

“There were forty-three yesterday,” my assistant, Janey, says.

“Video?” I ask.

She frowns. “I checked the videos and…” She looks over her tablet at the seventeen rabbits. “I think they are being absorbed.”

I laugh.

She doesn’t.

“Seriously?” I study the rabbits. “Explain.”

“You’ll see,” she says and shows me her tablet.

I do see.

The gray and white one seems to pounce on others and then they are simply…gone.

“Aren’t rabbits supposed to multiply?” I ask, knowing the answer.

Janey shrugs. “Eleven.”

“What?”

She points.

Eleven rabbits now.

A very odd number, indeed.
