FLASH FICTION: Goodbye, Too Many Debts
.jpeg)
The heavily boarded post man, having knocked for several minutes without a response, peeps from the keyhole and sees a shadowy dangling body in the distance.
Horrified, the post man breaks into the sprawling sitting room. Once there, he finds a swinging corpse, neck pinned to a ceiling fan, and a suicide note in just four words, GOODBYE, TOO MANY DEBTS.
The post man shakes his head like an Agama lizard, tears rolling down his eyes. The young man whose corpse dangles in the void had just won a lottery worth $1,000,000 and the post man bears the message.
