Friday 55

A story in 55 words exactly, to celebrate the coming weekend... I won't be driving anywhere, that's for sure.

Arriving at the station, there’s a deal! I swipe my card, recalling when I thought, “That’s the most I’ve ever paid…” That price was $3.17, and I glare at the sign: now 4 replaces 3. Those nostalgic days of yore existed only three months ago; my elation fades as my paycheck drains into the tank.
