Calculează
From a prompt... This is not a true story...
“You… you’re a superhero?”
“Yes.”
“What’s your power?”
“I can calculate change at superspeed…”
“…”
“Hello?”
“Yes?”
“Uh… Did you hear me?”
“Yes. Did you say that you can calculate change at superspeed?”
“Yes.”
“You have superspeed?”
“No. Well, yes, but only if I am calculating change.”
“Not… to run? Along the road… Up the side of a building? Across the ocean? Or-or into a burning building to save a baby some lady left behind for reasons that they never explain… like… like really quickly?”
“Nope. No. No… Only for calculating change.”
“How much is that?”
“Four dollars and fifty cents.”
“Wow… I mean… wow, that was pretty quick.”
“Yeah, thanks.”
“You can’t wait until someone leaves the room and then move all the DVDs on a shelf into a different order, before they come back?”
“No.”
“Rearrange all their furniture when they turn to look out the window?
“Nah.”
“What about-”
“Just change.”
“Oh… well… I… I suppose that’s… that’s cool, man…”
“Yeah… It’s… cool.”
“Yeah…”
“Yeah…”
“Okay, I gotta go… I’ll get the tip.”
“Twenty dollars, eighty-five cents.”

As always… thanks for reading 😁



This was a hoot. Love it.
Ahah, I thought I'm seeing a bug in the page. Great power tho, many Romanians could use it since we're still using physical money quite a bit.
