A young boy could be seen‚ the mop on his head bouncing loosely as he jerked himself through the barricade of

The car raced along a black highway‚ the leaving town sign was the only thing to read‚ the faintly lit sign quickly faded behind the car as we drove. I was in no rush‚ but I knew she was stuck in a form of limbo‚ waiting. The only thing to light our dark midnight drive was the passing of the street lamps illuminating the dark road ahead. The radio was on but no one was listening‚ I looked out the windshield and would feel the street lights on me for a brief moment before they disappeared only to

Lamb to the Slaughter By: Roald Dahl THE ROOM WAS WARM and clean‚ the curtains drawn‚ the two table lamps alight hers and the one by the empty chair opposite.
