55 Flash Fiction Friday #50: Chapter 42 - Chalo!


Some stories are the same in any language.
In his surprise Arjun didn't realize that he'd lifted his foot from the throttle slowing the lorry. One enraged gang member charged leaping at the passenger side running board. A fraction of a second later, he fell to the ground, the rifle butt having turned his nose into a sodden, pulpy mass. "Drive!", Anaamika demanded.

Notes:
chalo!: move! (or, in this case, drive!)

Poor Arjun! I'd be afraid to drive, with such a fierce passenger! LOL Seriously, I hope that's the last of the bandits and they have a clear road ahead? (I'm afraid to look...)

You're making my Fridays exciting you know.
