Title: The Delivery
Source: 100 Word Wednesday: Week 81
Word count: 100 words
A black panel van parked on the street. Marcus and Ari checked the mirrors before unloading the six cartons. Ari carried his load down the walkway to where a dumpster obscured a side door. They stacked the cartons next to the door. Ari adjusted the top carton, nodded, and they returned to the van. No one noticed as they drove away.
It was two a.m. when the bar emptied. The hometown team won putting them in the playoffs and cash in Pete’s till. Tired but happy, he was locking the door ready to head home when the entire block exploded.

I am curious what triggered the explosion and who it was meant for? It’s a nice short piece to ruminate over.
