Friday 55 Flash Fiction # 106 New Van



"I'll drive".


"No, I'll drive said Sid.


They argued until Bob snatched the keys.




Sid's fist caught Bob in the eye.


"What's going on here?" demanded the Police Sergeant.


"I want to drive the new van" said Bob.


"That's ridiculous" said the Sergeant


"Two police officers fighting over who gets to drive the new van!" 

Friday 55 Flash Fiction is brought to you by G-man (Mr Knowitall). The idea is you write a story in exactly 55 words. If you want to take part pop over and let G-man know when you've posted your 55.

Fantastic quotation from Akelamalu (2010). I see it as a commentary on how people crave to fit in and often times end up losing themselves in the process.
