HER SMILE
“From her small balcony, the witch watches the world go by.”
You think you're safe, bitch! Not from me. Mark watched as the object of his lust enjoyed coffee on the balcony of her family's house.
She'd met him for coffee, but the date ended suddenly when he told her he thought their children would be exceptionally good looking, after all, they were both perfect specimens.
She'd refused to consider another meeting. He apologized, tried to laugh off his comment, but she wouldn't listen.
Mark fiddled with the guns scope, but soon he had her sighted. She looked right at him and smiled. Mark hesitated.
At that same moment, another driver lost control of his vehicle taking Mark's option from him.

A nurse wiped the spittle from his chin and wheeled him into the sunshine. Paralyzed from the neck down, Mark can only watch, but all he sees is that smile. Her smile haunts his every conscious and unconscious moment.
