Walmart, at 3 AM (Fifty Word Short Fiction)


This is, duh, the album cover to Iron and Wine's album "The Shepherd's Dog." I thought it fit the piece maybe too well.

Bark, bark.

The parking lot was tombstone quiet, except for some dog, barking off in the distance.

She noticed a shadow, sitting in the front seat of her car.

Bark, bark.

"Hello?"

The shadow didn't stir. It looked through her.

Bark.

She opened her car door and the barking ceased.
