Broken Asphalt
By
Jake bible
Malden’s breath hitches in his chest as he slides to a stop, his thickly calloused feet digging furrows into the roof’s detritus, his toes barely able to grip the edge of the concrete.
Below: a three hundred foot drop and nothing but broken asphalt at the bottom.
Behind: eight hunters.
Two is a problem. Four is very bad.
Eight is death.
“Here, little piggy, piggy,” one calls to him.
Malden studies the drop.
“Where ya gonna go, piggy?” another shouts.
He thinks he sees a way down. He hopes he’s right.
“Dinner time,” one yells.
Malden steps off the roof.
