Endplay

3 Word Wednesday entry.

A corpse is an ebbed out wave.

Chuckle. Good.

Squats beside and inspects.

The exit wound.

Where?

Pointing to it. There.

Let there be light.

Nod.

Phone rings. Thanks.

What time?

10 : 30

That is too late. He was seen entering the house at 9:30. What did he wait for?

Not him. Her. Stave it off for us may be.

Negotiating with a serial killer. Click tongue.

We are always late aren't we?

Well at least we know who it is the next time.

Yeah. Not random anymore.
