“Wrong detour” by Dewni De Silva

Submitted to Contest #50

Paulo Miguel When I plunged down the road, I made a foolish decision. To my right was a detour that reflected immediate safety. Turning, I realized the cul-de-sac was almost impossible to escape from. I halted, with one knee almost bent, scarped and looked as if I’ve dragged my self across a half-finished wooden floor. I panted with one hand on my hip, contemplating on how to climb this brick wall. I ran backwards and fling my leg to a side to get a firm grip on the wall.

You could say that he wasn’t expecting it, the bag falls from his hand to the force of the tug and screams at you to stop. Punching the exact same spot he kicked you earlier today, you grab his phone by force and make a run for it. With the device in your hand you never felt this powerful.
