The Weekday One Hundred

Payback

By

Robby crouched in the bushes. The boy had no problem waiting. All day, if need be. He wanted revenge. Badly.

Then he saw her, his eleven-year-old sister. Saw her exit the house, heard the screen door slam. His cue.

Robby exploded from the bushes and made a mad dash for the clothesline. He heard his big sister scream, saw her break into a sprint. She knew his plan.

But Robby got there first. He then grabbed her favorite pink unicorn sweatshirt and tossed it into the mud puddle right in front of her.

Revenge. It had never tasted so sweet.
