Today’s
Prompt:
Two men stop you on your way into your local
post office. One flashes a badge at you. They tell you about a top secret sting
operation they are about to execute and they need your help. They can’t give
you any of the details, only that you are to walk into the post office, go up
to the counter with the gentleman named Bert working it, and you have to say to
him, “My stamps are looking a bit square these days, if you know what I mean.”
Write what happens next.
The
secret service gives me screaming meemies. They don’t exactly call what they do
secret for nothing, do they?
When
I had to do this story, I kept that thought on the back burner allowing it to
simmer and boil over into the overall plot of the story. In this story, no one
can be trusted. Just like nobody is innocent.
Not even the guy stopped by the two men on his way into the post office.
Especially, not that guy.
Keep
an eye on him as you read.
Keep
your pen bleeding.
