What if I only need the one sentence? What then?
Wine.
Get me a glass of wine. Get me a glass of wine and let me tell you about the nights you’d been fuckeng my ego.
A messy business
Nothing but a barely audible hiss when I shove my boot down on the pedal. I guess she’ll be getting more than 50% then.
Her thoughts while he knelt…
Who had given him her Grandmother’s ring?
Did this mean her father now gave them his blessing?
Backseat
The relief flooded his being as the infant’s first cry rang out, mixing with the exhausted yet ecstatic sobbing of the child’s mother.
“It shouldn’t have happened here”, he thought, “in the back seat of my car, either now or 9 months ago.”
Here for a season
She held him close and told him that the harvest would not fail again next year.
He returned the embrace, wishing she knew that without the crop money to pay for his treatment, he would not be there to find out.
At the altar
He stood facing the priest, heart racing, yearning to hear the sound of her footsteps coming closing up the aisle.
But they faded with her sobs as she ran outside, her train hitched up to aid her flight.
Smiles Now
She was smiling when she woke this morning. Why?
Shock
Kelly was my girlfriend at the time and she tried to shock me one day by showing me that she had shaved her head. I just laughed because I knew I had a far better shock waiting for her in my backyard where I kept the dead bodies of all the people I had murdered.
Isabella’s Basil
He’d been a quiet sort during their marriage, and he was still a quiet sort now she supposed, as she plucked the leaves and popped them on top of the tomato and mozzarella. In a way, they were closer than they’d ever been – and lets face it, he was delicious – her husband, her Basil.
Somwhere in April
Four months ago, I remembered he just rang on my mobile and said that I have to forget her and forgive him for was being trying by force me to do so, then sudden warm tear drop came from somewhere in my eyes and went down through my cheeks, felt my heart almost stop there, and kind of butterfly effects in side my stomach. Deeply I went blank, which felt to me that whole world was deteriorating on top of my head and still don’t know why he did that to me but he seems to be very happy and moving on nowadays.
Long Day Ahead
The autumn morning was crisp, as fresh as the river water Jim could see from his porch as he sipped his coffee and watched the sun rise. He sighed then, upset by the contrast between the beauty of the world and the ugliness of what he had to do in it that day.
The Fire Rises
Batman was broken, physically and mentally broken. Gotham City, his city was broken too under the reign of terror of a madman named Bane. Part of his conscious demanded that he get out there, get healthy and take the city back; another part of him just wanted to give up and escape, right now he wasn’t sure which way he would go.
How Dare You
The seemingly innocuous comment was the last straw for Charles. On the outside he appeared calm, but in his mind he had killed everyone in the room three times.
Survivor(s)
The only man to survive the meteor strike walked towards his home and through the open gate. He didn’t stop to think that he always closed it when he left.
To Like a Boy
I want a tummy-ful of giddy, a box of boozed butterflies. Or just one; I’m not greedy: One wing, one spark.
OCD Torture
When he left the office, his desk was clean, free of clutter, almost pristine. Three days later his coworkers had managed to pile it high with files, random junk and their own personal belongings.
The Coffee Shop
She sat in the corner of the coffee shop, hands tightly wrapped around a hot, skinny latte. She wondered how long it would take them to find his body.
The Rescue
The red headed woman working at the animal shelter hated all the stupid humans who left without an animal; how dare they not adopt one of the cuties. She noted their addresses and later that night murdered them in their sleep.
The Newspaper Man
All of his customers thought he was a perfectly normal guy selling daily newspapers and magazines at the underground subway shop. Little did they know he laced every page with poison and was slowly killing them all.
