married
The most important four words for a successful marriage: 'I'll do the dishes.'
Silence
Outside, distant sirens and screeching tires darted down the road. The loud demand filled the silence for a few moments, and its whirring refrain lingered in their ears for some time. Finally, the ringing dissolved and it appeared the silence was back. The cream-smeared walls held up the wooden clock, and its glass face grimaced with a crooked smile. The smile read 8:15, and its thin, overlooked hand was ready to perform again. The hand danced rhythmically tick, tock, tick, tock, disrupting the silence once more.

Maybe She Was a Stranger to Me
I tried to think back, the last few days before she disappeared. As far as I could see everything had been as usual. The day yesterday, and the day before that again. I came home, took off the shoes. I climbed the stairs. I came up to the main floor. She usually sat on a chair in the kitchen. The same thing always happened: As I entered, she got up.

I Believe in What I See
I'm not a very suspicious person. I believe in what I see and I have always believed in her before. I have not had reason to be suspicious of her because she was always a reliable person and always does what she says she should. I know everything about her, I thought. I usually thought so. But sometimes the doubts were there, I had to admit to myself

Sally Loves Tommy
Sally and Tommy were all aglow when they got home late the next Sunday. No one had heard from them except for the "Wish You Were Here" post cards they all had gotten on Saturday. Instead of using the extra money they had been given as wedding presents and such for being extravagant, they had used it to shop and get wonderful souvenirs for their families, friends AND themselves and the baby. They had flown home, so they bought the biggest set of luggage they could find and packed it onto the plane. Thomas thought the bags would never stop coming!! He was glad he had brought the truck. :-)

The Wicked Woman
"You are so worthless and lazy," she could hear him grumbling about her as he stomped through the living room. The limited-edition hand-blown glass vase that Ese bought off her favorite home shopping channel was sitting on the table in the hall, every time Marcus passed the vase it would rock a bit then stop. Molly, their jet-black Labrador with the white right ear was cowering at the entrance of the front door. Molly had to go potty, but no-one noticed.
