Revenge


Vijay, my ex-lover, pointed the gun at my husband's head. I had left Vijay three years ago and he was thirsty for revenge. Tarun closed his eyes, but opened them when he heard the shot. Vijay lay dead before him. My hands were shivering as I slowly dropped the gun.

  1. Too short and abrupt - you could have done a lot more to use the potential of the theme!

    1. The theme was 55 fiction, not revenge. It is meant to be short. This is exactly how I wanted it!

  4. If you had added five more words it would have become a wonderful 55 Word Fiction.
    It had the interesting twist at the end.

    1. Thanks for the suggestion KP. I appreciate it. I wanted it to be under 55 this time though.

  6. Wow! I had tried writing a 55 fiction once, did not work for me :)
    Limitation on use of words makes me sort of claustrophobic!
