Abandoned
This is a short piece I put together for the flash fiction challenge over on Terrible Minds. Tell us a story of revenge, Chuck Wendig told us. But keep it under 100 words, he added. The penmonkey asked, so this wordslave delivers. Hopefully it’s short and (bitter)sweet enough.
Abandoned
Abandoned and forgotten. That’s how you’d leave them. Always left them. Afterwards you’d ask for more.
Strangely, I always provided them, knowing how you’d abuse them. Wondering what kind of sick joy it gave you.
One day this was going to catch up to you. One day your secret would be revealed. One day I would avenge the damage that you had done.
“Hey, you got another pen?” You asked. No shame. No guilt.
I drove the pen through your hand, nailing it to the table. “Take care not to lose this one” I said, smiling. “It’s precious to me.”
Gorgeous. Not at all what I expected. Very well done.
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
ooh! Very angry.
Nice.
Happy to see you enjoyed it, thanks!
Amazing!
Awesome, thank you!
Never mess with a writer’s pens! : )
Exactly! Glad you enjoyed it!
You know, sometimes I feel the same way…
Nicely done!
I think we all do at one point or another. Thanks, and glad you enjoyed it!
