"Nelson?" I yelled.

He turned his head and saw me, then spun the forklift around toward me. He raised the forks until they were level with my chest and then started driving at me. I backed up until I was stopped by a stack of tires, which toppled over with me falling on top of them.

Nelson jumped off the forklift and sprinted for the doors. I got to my feet and gave chase.

As I ran out after Nelson the foreman yelled, "I don't blame you, mister! If he'd knocked my sister up I'd be chasing the bastard too!"

    Well I think Mr Nelson might be looking for another job soon, unless he’s been rendered incapacitated when Jakey catches up with him. Yeeha!

    Just checked... you’ve published this story, thus far, in less than a month! Great stuff! Thanks Christopher.

    Thanks, Neville. I like doing several each night but I had to slow up just a bit for a night or two to make sure I stayed ahead of the game. I think I'm about 75% done with the writing and have about 60% posted. So I'm in good shape as far as staying a little bit ahead but I don't have room for error!
