Waiting Period

Driven to desperation by the hand the world has dealt him, the suicidal narrator of Waiting Period attempts to buy a gun to end his life. But a computer malfunction causes a delay with the gun license: a life-saving event that sees the man questioning why he should die when there are so many others he believes should go before him. Planning the perfect murder, he chooses a victim – a bureaucrat responsible for denying him his benefits – and discovers to his amazement that his plan works perfectly. But now this man has found his purpose in life, how far will he go with his mission?
