Tails

“There’s two sides to every coin. A head and tails. Winning and losing. Flipping a coin is everything. Every path, every choice, every decision is a coin flip. Those who avoid flipping, waste away. That’s why I admire you. Never afraid to take a risk.” He laughs spewing spit. “Yet, this is what got you in this position. You flipped to many tails. Too many tails. Some people flip heads and some flip tails. Trouble was going to find you, reaping what you owe.” His face falling, and the other. The other was laughing. The laugh echoes around your drums, traveling, never escaping. “Bang.”

Food Fight Ep.6

David

 Daisy was increasingly heavy with no sign of slowing down. Exiting the Staters, David inhales the scene, a dozen bodies spread across the parking lot. Gummy bears own the Staters parking lot. Two new jeeps occupy the lot, engines still humming, and colorless. Half the outlaws are breathing and half lie still. Bringing Daisy to the outlaws jeep,

“Lauren! Let’s go!” No response. The parking lot was absent of sounds except for the jeeps. “Lauren?” The nest was empty. The ice chest was absent, no Ramon either. The sound of impending trucks speeding to the lot. Daisy laying unconscious in the passenger seat. David had to make a choice. David speeds off in the jeep getting Daisy back to the camp.

David looked through each street, looking for a sign of Lauren. I can’t show up without her. Luke will kill me. The camp was up ahead and David throttles forward. A pink lawn chair rested in front of the camp, Laurens chair. David placed Daisy carefully, placing the key in his pocket. David holds the key to the sun. Heading back to the jeep and heads back toward Stater Bros.
