The Horror

The Horror

A Story by exotic flotsam
"

A 100 word short story about a new apartment and unforeseen revulsion

"

 

Not in the shiny color apartment ad anywhere did I see a note about neighbors. My new home. Undiscovered then to me. The anticipation is palpable. That night in the elevator I rode with obscenely tanned balding men, rolls of belly fat, streaming glittering cologne saturated sweat, wearing gold sequined thongs. I puke internally, shielding my shrieking eyes. I’m sardined inside the steamy elevator. Sweaty. Hairy. Backs. A taste of baby oil hung in my nostrils like an oily cloud. I’m in a pod of bronzed saggy flat butts. Unwittingly, I now live in a retirement nudist colony. My new neighbors.

I found this really amusing. At first i was expecting something about him killing you, then it ended up with nudity. I love it!
