“I am sorry, honey. It is such a stressful time,” he said apologetically after a long workday.
I had been waiting for him and was ready.
“No worries,” I said, touching my aching brow and making sure the makeup still hid the bruises. “Would you like a drink before dinner?”
“Martini, please. You are the best, and I don’t deserve you,” he said, kissing my neck and sitting down, the fool he was.
I mixed his drink. The table was already set.
“Please enjoy,” I said. I handed him the drink and a plateful of delicious mushroom risotto with unusual fungi.
Very layered story. Nicely done!
Just desserts! Well told.
Hmmm, i guess he gets a sudden allergic reaction to mushrooms??
Love it. Simple revenge
Well written revenge story
Thank you everyone! 🙂 Nina
