Haiku- An unbreakable bond

We are together

By an invisible bond

Something we call love.

Flash Fiction

Ian was stuck in traffic. The radio was loud, he found himself surrounded by dozens of cars but that wasn't important,  he was lost on his own thoughts. The traffic light turned green and he hit the gas. The sound of something in his truck distracted him but he decided to ignore it and keep on driving. It was 10:25 in the morning, he was already late to his date.

He parked his pickup truck and climbed out of it.  The cafeteria was crowded but in a sea of unknown faces he found her. He bought his daily coffee and a blueberry muffin and sat with the woman.

“Did you kill him?” asked Ian taking a big chunk of muffin to his mouth.

“Didn’t you hear?”

“Hear what?”

“The body is hidden in the back of your truck.”
