LibrarianGoddess101: “You know nothing about me yet. Interesting how strongly you feel about this.” The man watches his wife remove his wallet from his coat pocket then disappear with it into the bedroom. God damn it, he thinks, there goes any hope for having a beer, tonight, or doing anything other than watching some Lifetime Movie with my wife. The wife appears, again, from the bedroom and moves toward the couch. The man quickly closes his laptop. “I, uh, saw you took my wallet into the bedroom

He raised the gun up and pointed it at his head. His little boney finger was sitting gently on the trigger. “No!” I yelled as the body fell lifeless to the floor.
