Excellent The punisher The Uber Driver by Iza Deleanu Supernatural Flash Fiction writing prompt entry

- Stop right there. I caught you in the act! - What act? Giorgio, you know damn well I'm not an actor, I'm just the Uber driver. - Yes, that's your act, you're pretending to be a driver, but you are not! - If I am not a driver, then what am I? - You are a ghost! - I'm not, look I have a license and all! - You are a modern ghost, a Chinese infiltrater that wants to steal our secrets. - Giorgio, have you checked your temperature lately? Any encounter with Covid? - Aha, I knew it! You are undercover spreading Covid. Uber -Huber my foot! - Come on Giorgio, we've been friends since grade one. - Yes, but you disappeared in grade two, so how do you explain that after twenty years I ended up in your car? - Coincidence! Fate? - No, to both of them! Premeditation! You are after me! You want to punish me for stealing your girlfriend. - Girlfriend? Which one? Giorgina? - Yes, Giorgina. She is now, my wife, so Mr. Uber, she's off-limits. - Congratulations to both of you. And to tell you the truth, I never liked her, I just wanted to make you jealous. - Shoot, I felt for it, and I'm trapped. - What? You don't like her? - What's to like about? She talks non-stop. - Then, why you married her? - Well, I just wanted her, because you were dating her! - Are you crazy? We were just kids. I never heard of anyone to marry their first-grade girlfriend. - Well, you left, so I made my move. - Bad, move apparently. Should I Covid her for you? She will be quiet for fourteen days if you are lucky! - So, you do admit that you can spread Covid! - Yeah, I have a can in my trunk. Do you want one? - Sure. - Hey, where are you taking me? - Don't worry Giorgio, I'm taking you somewhere safe. You don't want me to be caught by NS or CDC or whatever the name of those agencies is that combat Covid - Yes, you are right. After thirty minutes drive, they stopped near a golf course. Luigi asked Giorgio to get down and approach the trunk. He opened the trunk and gave him a can. - What is this? - Let me introduce you to the finest Chinese brew - Corona, a beer for you, and a virus for her. Take a sip of it and tell me how it is? - Mmm, it's so good, but why are you helping me? - I'm helping myself. You see karma it's a bitch and I'm here to deliver justice. I'm the Angel of Death! Go to sleep, Giorgio when you wish to harm somebody, usually you get the punishment. I'm your supernatural encounter. Luigi died because of you twenty years ago. You pushed him in the water and he drowned.  You didn't know, did you?   Writing Prompt The character in your story is involved in some way with the supernatural.
