‘Oh, Jeff… I love you too… but…’

Brakes screeching, an ear-splitting crash, and we were disconnected. The police came and saw a heartbroken husband. The funeral was lovely.

    Ouch, a noir interpretation if ever there was won. Gripping tale and thanks for your entry

    Whoa, this took a dark and twisty turn! It’s got that twisted, dark humor vibe with a pinch of suspense—like a thriller in just a few lines. A clever, sharp punchline that leaves you thinking about the character's... questionable choices.✨
