This morning I’m singing in the shower. My new husband is still sleeping. I couldn't
sleep because of his snoring but that won't last for long. Yesterday we took a
joint life insurance policy and today I will serve him his favorite breakfast
which will be his last. After my shower I go to the kitchen clutching the little poison pill in my palm.
I open the fridge, take
a few slices of bread,
put them the toaster
and turn it on. The electric shock startles me and I notice his
smiling face peeking from behind the bedroom door, aaargh.
