Missing

Mr. Green, I need to ask you a few questions.

You should be asking her the questions. I’ve told you before she’s a murderer.

Shelly Thompson died in the ICU two hours ago.

She died? Well, I didn’t mean to kill her. She deserved far worse but I didn’t mean to do it.

Let’s start at the beginning, Mr. Green. Tell me what happened.

You already know everything. I told you two weeks ago when he went missing.

Mr. Green, there was no evidence…

Yeah, save it! I’ve heard it before! I wasn’t going to let that monster get off on a technicality. She got what she deserved.

What happened at Ms. Thompson’s house, Mr. Green?

I did what I had to do. What you should have done. I made her talk. I had to beat her for hours to get her to confess but in the end, she did.

You beat her Mr. Green?

Yes. I beat her till my hands bled and I couldn’t make a fist anymore. But she still wouldn’t crack. I had to use a bat to finally break her.

And when she started talking what did she say?

She told me she did it. She said she killed him. She told me everything.

Did she tell you where the body was?

She said she buried him somewhere in the yard. I asked her to show me but she was blacking out and I couldn’t get her to come to. That’s when you guys showed up.

We have an investigation unit at Ms. Thompson’s house right now Mr. Green. If something’s there we’ll find it. Until then, I need to get your story on the record.

Look what do you want to know? I’ve been telling you guys everything for weeks and you don’t seem to get it!

Mr. Green when did you meet Ms. Thompson?

I’m not sure. Maybe two or three years ago. Why?

Are you currently taking your medication?

Oh, come on! Yes. Of course, I am.

How long have you been taking this medication, Mr. Green?

Two weeks I think. What does any of this have to do with my brother?

Mr. Green, we’ve been over this several times before. Dr. Shelly Thompson was treating you for a psychotic disorder. Two weeks ago she started you on a new medication that alleviated your psychosis. You don’t have a brother Mr. Green. You never have. He’s just a figment of your imagination.

Teeth

Matthew’s mouth was bloody and disgusting. He was cursed. On the very first day of his life, the doctor gave him to his mother after a hard delivery, and to her surprise, she found he already had a teeny tiny tooth. Her surprise was soon followed by disgust at how very ugly the tooth was. As well as all the others to follow. She made Matthew brush five, sometimes six, times a day. She made him floss and gargle with mouthwash. She routinely plagued the neighborhood dentist with checkups and cleanings. But there was no use. Matthew’s teeth were always crooked and discolored. Always bleeding and infected.  After many years of teasing by others in school, and even more years of study, Matthew graduated from college. He was very talented and quickly rose to the top of his field. Despite his appearance, he found he was very well respected and soon also found himself a very rich man. Still, the shame of his unsightly appearance followed him and he spent most of his days feeling very lonel...

Over the Bar

 "My dad told me that if you swing over the bar you'll turn inside out like a sock." "No way! That’s ridiculous." "Yes way! It’s physics. You just have never heard of it happening because it's impossible." "It's not impossible." "It's physically impossible man. No one can do it." "I can do it." “You can’t swing over the bar Cody” “Yes I can. I’ve done it before. Lots of times.” "OK. Prove it.” “I don’t feel like it right now Joel.” “See. You’re just saying that cause you can’t do it.” “I can do it. Just not right now. I've got a stomach ache.” “I dare you to swing over the bar Cody. I double dare you." Cody couldn’t turn down a double dare. He would be ridiculed for chickening out until the end of the school year. He had no choice but to give it his best shot. Hesitantly he walked to the swing set and sat down in the seat. Silently Joel watched the swing climb into the air. Cody's legs shot up...

Cab Fare

They don’t make a strong enough coffee to keep you awake on nights like these. The road hypnotizes you. Your eyes get heavy. Next thing you know you’re starring at an 18 wheeler on the wrong side of the road about to turn you into a stain. That normally wakes you up. This time wasn’t like that. This time I woke up safely parked in front of a building with no clue how I got there. I shook off the sleep, pulled a smoke from the glove compartment, and raised my head to light it when I saw him in the rear view mirror. I jumped like a frightened school girl and screamed “Who the hell are YOU!” He just sat there staring. No response to my reaction whatsoever. He wasn’t really doing anything but looking out the window. He was dressed in a suit. Didn’t look dangerous so I assumed the guy probably was just a little drunk. I settled down a bit and sipped my coffee. “The names Charon. Where to big guy?” I asked. He hesitated but then clumsily said “Just down the road. I think. Just drive down thi...
