100-Word Story Contest | Jealousy
Source: Pxhere | Image here
My mother once told me, ‘God will teach you how to love’.
I saw my wife hugging a man today in the mall.
I ran home. I tried to drink the pain away. I could not.
When she arrived later, she had the loveliest smile on her face.
I held my hands around her neck, robbing her of the oxygen that she robbed me.
When the cops arrived, he was with them, and my mother-in-law with him.
He was my wife’s long-lost brother.
My mother once told me, ‘God will teach you how to love’.
Now I had the answer.

This is great! There's something about short (really short) stories that I love because you need to put all the emotions in a few words. I felt that guy's jealousy, rage and remorse all at the same time.
