The ATM machine began dispensing twenties... spewing them into the air. She stood there mesmerized as they danced in the wind, gusts lifting them towards the brilliant blue sky and then stopping to let the green bills drift, only to be caught by another gust.
She watched passersby reach and grasp for the elusive bills … some scurrying away with their new found bits of wealth.
“hmm” … she thought, turning back to her tuna salad. “I’d hate to have to explain to the boss how I lost the ATM funds … and I think my job is tough.”
Peace, love & paper

Now this was a really original take on the prompt! Boy, I sure wouldn't want to be that bank employee! Nicely done, love the unexpected twist at the end. Kat

Wonderful job and a fun twist on the prompt !
Cheeky lady that one...and I loved the way she goes to her salad without a care...great post.
No more remarks about how you are not a creative writer!!!! This was soooo good, and different--a breath of fresh air (blowing those 20's right at me!)

I liked imagining those twenties wafting on the breezes.
Really descriptive!
Nice one.

I love this image! Lucky passers by and an almost unemployed benefactor. Great dichotomy, wonderful imagination.
Namaste..........cj
you just needed "We're in the Money" playing in the background, and this could have been a scene in a movie!
Great job!
Such a fun, original use of this prompt. I really enjoyed the direction you took this!
