The Red Box
by
Robert Steadman
Last night I was a contestant on a game show.
I was doing really well. The low numbers disappeared. I was left with only high value boxes.
"Are you ready for the question?"
"Yes, I'm ready."
"£50,000 - Deal or No Deal?"
"No deal!"
The audience whooped and cheered.
"Do you want to do the swap?"
"No."
I was left with one box. This was my box.
I nervously held the tab before ripping it open.
What had I won? Would it change my life?
I flipped the lid open and looked in to find my prize: Noel Edmond's decapitated head.
