Day #13: Together Again by Elizabeth Averay
He’s gone. He said he would go, but he’d been saying it for years. ‘I’ve had enough, I’m leaving.’ And the next day he would be there as if the fight had never happened.
When we first got together he promised to never leave me. Said we would be together forever. Now he is gone, all his possessions – everything cleared out. I gave up everything for him: my job, my friends, family, home, and my beautiful, beloved dog – he said they would get in the way. That he was allergic. That all we needed was each other. But now he’s gone with that little bitch from the post office. NI never complained when he would have affairs with others because he said they were meaningless. Just an itch he had to scratch – nothing more.
Now he’s gone to live with her and I’m all alone. NOT. FOR. LONG. No one breaks a promise to me and gets away with it.
Watching her house I wait ‘til he has gone out then I go and climb in through the window. Ghosting through the house, I find her in the bedroom, fast asleep and naked. My blood boils at the sight.
Slowly I creep up to the slumbering figure and carefully tie her arms and legs to the bedposts. Nice and tight. She starts to awaken, and I slip a gag into her mouth and tie that even harder still.
Once satisfied that she cannot get away I smile, sit next to her, stroke her head back then belt her across the face. ‘You stole him from me! Now you’ll be punished. Then I will have a nice surprise for him.’
Leaving her for a few moments I search the house for what I need.
Returning to my captive I hold out a skewer, then plunge it into her abdomen – nine, ten, eleven, twelve times – creating a smiley face. Then I take hold of a knife and slice off her eyelids, carve hearts into her forehead. All the while she whimpers through the gag. Then the muffled screams start up when I swap to the hammer and shatter her feet. Just to start with, then I move onto her hands, smashing the hammer down as hard as I can, moving onto her silicone-filled breasts and making them erupt in a shower of blood and tissue and silicone.
What bliss!
I keep hammering ‘til I have smashed her chest and ribs then heart into a grisly pulp. Satisfied with my efforts I sit back and wait.
After an hour he comes back, shouting, ‘Babe, I’m home! There’s no sign of Emma around, thank God.’ He struts into the bedroom and freezes as the blood drains from his face at the sight of his little bitch.
I sneak past him and slam the door shut. ‘My darling. You promised we would be together forever. Then you left me – for that.’ Waving my hand at the bed. I smile at him with all my love showing on my face and step in close, whispering, ‘You will never leave me again.’ Then I thrust my knife into his chest, stabbing into his heart; then, using a hacksaw, I remove his head, wrap it up and take it home with me safe in the knowledge he and I will be together again – now and forever.
