A lifetime of watching other people catch all the breaks spilled over as Manny waited for the bus. As ant-like workers put the finishing touches on a luxury condominium he could never afford, he reached his boiling point. The smiling face of another yuppie stung more than the icy rain. Although his fist through poster board merely destroyed the
man’s sparkling veneers (veneers which could pay for a year of
his daughters college), it gave Manny a slight bit of satisfaction seeing the man’s pretty mug defaced.
Excellent flash fiction. Good job in creating a character one can empathize with in such a limited space.
Thank you.
