The activist spent a sleepless night after the cataclysmic events of the day. Surely the bold actions of his heroes earlier would elicit deadly retribution from the cruel dictator who had somehow gained ascendancy in his beloved land. He knew that, even though he had always carefully masked himself during operations, the Government HAD to have his name on a "LIST", and knew his every move. Fitfully, he clutched his smart phone close to his body, even though he knew that the Secret Police could easily track him by its signal. He needed it to stay in touch with Social Media and keep abreast of the unfolding events. It was amazing that the evil powers-that-be had not yet cut off his link to the outside world, but perhaps they were just cruelly enjoying his tweets before they came in for the kill.
Although it was nice and warm in his parents' basement, the activist found himself in a cold sweat. This was pure, naked fear, that even binge-watching his favorite shows on Netflix could not assuage. The 56" Plasma Flat Screen TV filled the room with a rosy glow that did nothing to diminish his terror. He knew from the History Channel that the 20th-Century Hitler liquidated his opponents shortly after his elevation to high office, so there was an historical precedent to what was bound to happen again this very night. After all, this was just like back then...the new Chief Executive was "Literally Hitler". What was surprising was that he was taking so long to have his own "Night of the Long Knives." Well, after yesterday's performance in the Legislative Assembly, it was bound to happen this very night!
And so, he huddled, cravenly, waiting for the fatal knock on the door.
Perhaps he might escape his grisly fate because of his parents. They sheltered him, but they were mind-numbed fascist robots who wore red hats and supported the evil orange man. But no...Hitler actually killed some of his old friends and comrades in the "Night of the Long Knives", so "Literally Hitler" wouldn't have any issue with killing his parents as well. Serves them right for voting for him!
He searched his smart phone and his cable for news of the Capital Building burning to the ground overnight. That would be a perfect tactic for the evil, fascist, nazi orange man, and he could easily use the Media (over which he had total control) to blame the fire on Jews, Communists, Democrats, or even Antifa. The fear crept into his bones.
Upstairs, he could hear his parents decorating the house for Christmas. They were going all-out this year, as Dad was finally able to save his house and pay off the mortgage. This was due to the fact that he was able to end years of unemployment and oppressive taxes with a new job that used his skills. The last three years had been prosperous, and the family was finally "out of the hole". The activist could have gotten several jobs as well, because there were "HELP WANTED" signs all over town. But his work with the resistance was more important.
The night wore on. The activist grew more and more anxious. Where were the police? The singing of Christmas Carols echoed through the floorboards over his head. It was obnoxious. The TV showed Jewelry Commercials with a man proposing marriage to a beautiful cisgender female and presenting her with diamonds. The Christmas lights that Dad had festooned on the shrubs glittered on the frosty basement window. The smart phone twittered with angry profane tweets about the evil fascist dictator...and still there was no knock on the door.
HE'S PLAYING WITH US! HE'S MAKING US SUFFER! WHY DOESN'T HE JUST GET IT OVER WITH! I'M NOT AFRAID TO DIE! The torture was excruciating.
Suddenly...there was a soft tapping on the door. OMG! THEY'RE HERE!
Then a voice said:
"Bobby, Mom has made bacon and eggs and home-made waffles for breakfast. C'mon upstairs."
Too, too funny! Good one! Bravo!
