Comfort.

It had been fifteen days since her husband had left her when sheΒ found the note stashed in her underwear drawer.

I AM WATCHING YOU.

She didn’t recognize the handwriting, but decided then and there to take comfort in the little things.

      I don’t know… (wait for it…) who dunnit. Ba-dum-dum.
      At least not yet πŸ™‚

    Oo intriguing. I’m with Gringa, wondering if there’s more going on with the husband. But I don’t think I would react how she did – I don’t think I would find that comforting!

      That would be an interesting twist with the husband, wouldn’t it. I don’t think I’d be all that comforted either, but clearly there’s something up with this chick.

    So good, Michelle! I’m kind of sad I missed it this week but feel better that I wouldn’t have competed with your awesome entry anyway πŸ˜‰

      Aw, you’re sweet. I wish you’d have made it though. I almost didn’t. We’ll see what happens next week!

    Well I noticed the thongs in the photo and thought that these were the “little things” she was going to take comfort in.
    I worry about where my mind goes sometimes! tsk tsk

    Eeek! I read this as: she decided she ought to take comfort in the little things because it was entirely possible that she would be killed at any moment. I think I’ve been reading too many of these teeny tiny murder mysteries. πŸ™‚ (I also loved tnkerr’s interpretation.) Love that you linked this up!

      I hadn’t thought of it that way at all. I love how we all read things differently πŸ™‚

      I’m no fiction writer, but this may have sparked an idea… stay tuned…

      Ha! Me either, but our girl here is something else. Thanks for the kind words πŸ™‚
