Breaking Free



On a suburban street, a man sat in a car, thinking. Around him sprinklers ran, a bird cleaned itself in a tree, life moved on.

But Charlie’s mind was far away.

“How did I get stuck here? I used to be free, I used to be able to go anywhere I liked, eat whatever I wanted, not care about anything. But one single screw and now I have to be the responsible one! I have to provide for my kids! Screw it!”

The driver started the car, and then almost immediately hit Charlie as he swooped down from the tree.
