Extortion out of proportion

by User 8189

After a late night in his favourite club, T.H. was driving in his car towards his home. It was hard to focus on the road because he had drunk too much. Suddenly a man appeared in front of the car and T.H. couldn’t prevent the accident.
’’Oh no’’ : he thinks ’’nobody may know about this binge-drinking -accident’’. But in the car following T.H. there were few guys who saw the accident and they went to him. They told him that they won’t go to the police in he paid them. T.H. refused the extortion and drove away. The morning after, he open his mailbox and found few photo’s of the accident, it was clear that the guys wouldn’t stop this blackmailing. But he couldn’t prevent a second assault, now the guys committed a little arson in his garden. Now T.H. was furious and followed them towards a club. It was clear that they were drug – peddling right there but he couldn’t care. He walked towards him and when the guys noticed him, they took a broken bottle and took him outside. They stabbed and mugged him and ran away.

    I think you might have the makings of four or five ficlets all crammed into one. I think it could be a really good series, if you broke up the events and added more detail.
