Extra Cheese Whiz, by Mark Tulin – Friday Flash Fiction

“Poets have been mysteriously silent on the subject of cheese.” G.K. Chesterton


Extra Cheese Whiz, by Mark Tulin
10/5/2019

“I’ll have mine with hot peppers and grilled onions,” I said to the guy at the cheesesteak joint.

“Cheese Whiz?”

“Extra, please.”

As I bit into my cheesesteak, I noticed a dark energy coming from two men in shiny suits.

It was a sunny day but I couldn’t enjoy it.

I nearly choked on the torpedo roll.

The two men had such a deadly aura that I could barely digest my cheesesteak with extra Cheese Whiz.

Their evil aura was like a gale that blew me backward, and it was all I could do to keep from losing my lunch.
