Friday Fictioneers: Shocked to death

lvbydawne_2Ali sat in the shade of the big oak tree. This is where he liked to be when he wanted to clear his mind. Sadia had just called him to tell him that she wanted to end the relationship.

Like a light had gone on in his head, Ali knew what he had to do. He couldn’t let her get away with it. He got up and went inside to prepare for his next move.

  1. Whenever I read about such real life stories, I always wonder “Why couldn’t he just divorce her and move on?” Of course, that would be too easy. And as we know, humans are more complicated than that. Good one. Sad, but good.
