FF: Child’s Play

Hello and welcome to another edition of Rochelle’s weekly challenge of a story in 100 words – Friday Fictioneers – based on the marvelous photo prompt kindly provided by Dale.

FF: Child’s Play

Words 100

β€œYour pills darling.” Rekha hugged her new husband, β€œThanks for fixing the lights and my favorite pink roses.”

β€œBut,” Jim frowned, β€œI didn’t fix the lights or send roses. Don’t you prefer red?”

β€œWho could it be in this deserted place? Stalker? Ghost?”

β€œDon’t…”

The lights flickered and a disembodied voice spoke. β€œShaina my love….”

β€œWh…who…” Jim quavered gripping Rekha.

β€œGet away from my wife…”

β€œShe’s my wife.”  

β€œShe’s mine. Leave her or you’re dead…”

β€œNooooo!” Jim screamed and collapsed at Rekha’s feet.

β€œWell that was easy.” Rohit emerged from the shadows.

β€œI told you he was terrified of ghosts.”

  23. Oh what a twist!
    I am sure one day the child’s play will turn into a nightmare for them both.
    They can’t keep killing unsuspected new husbands. May be Rohit’s ex will come to settle the scores.
    Cheers..
