My ZAPFIC50 below is a short story told in exactly 50 words. Created by , this micro fiction story challenges you to complete as near a thought as possible. For the prompt "frustration", I decided to focus on a story about procrastination. That can certainly lead to be frustrated over a situation that shouldn't have occurred in the first place. I based my 50-word story on
's Freewrite prompt: Day 1710: 5 Minute Freewrite: Tuesday - Prompt: frustration.

Here's my story.
An hour before closing, Jeremy finally located a parking space at the license registration office.
The complex housed several businesses, so he didn't know for which one the extremely long line pertained.
A procrastinator, he dreaded answering his wife's call.
"Your sarcasm isn't helping! I realize today's the last day!"
