The Flutter by tfawcus
Dribble Flash Fiction contest entry

The boy reached up and took a fistful of bills from his mother's purse while she was deep in inconsequential chat.

Off he ran with glee, scattering them like butterflies.

She leapt up, screaming as she gave chase, seeing neither the boy nor his butterflies, but just her windfall cash.

Author Notes
A dribble is a flash fiction story that uses 50 words. That is the challenge of this contest.
