“He certainly does have impressive muscles, doesn’t he?” Victor approached his wife from behind, as she stood perusing the pretty bronzed plant-waterer from their bedroom window.
“I hadn’t noticed,” she lied.
“Time to get ready for date night,” he reminded her.
She feigned enthusiasm.
Victor knew his wife’s makeup routine well.
He sat smiling to himself as he watched her dip her contact lenses into the cleansing solution.
She possessed a unique talent of being able to insert both simultaneously.
He’d banked on that when he replaced the solution with oven cleaner: sodium hydroxide.
She wouldn’t look at another man again.
Deliciously evil. Brilliant.
Ouch what a horrific ending and what else will happen to her A man plagued by jealousy and mediocrity. Beautifully written
That’s so evil and so well brought out …top notch writing
ouch! Nasty man.
OMG! Shocked by the ending! Great example of getting straight into the middle of the action.
Fantastic ending and changed the scene instantly.
Ho hum, married bliss eh. This is a very good twist in the tale.
Good writing, but there’s no way you can put both contacts in at once – you need one hand to pull your lids away, the other to place the lens. This is one example of why people say write what you know…
What a diabolical man!
Ekkkkkkkkk!!!!!!!!!!! What a twist. I thought it was about the woman in an unhappy marriage. We always forget that the man is those relationships are not happy as well. But wow that was taking it to another level. Great job!!
