In front of him was a woman in a white gown with blood and soil over her. Her hands were bloody and dirty.
"That is not the right gift you give to your wife on her wedding, darling!" she replied and grinned. It wasn't an office party, it was Brian and Angela's wedding.
The dark secret that Brian hid was that he was a hoarder. He preserved anything he found useful. It had grown to such an extent that he even began preserving his loved ones. His sister and now his wife, Angela. He found a ditch in the ground and called Angela, and when she came he pushed her into it and tried to bury her alive! But now, she stood in front of him, ALIVE.
" You know honey why we chose this day, because it was The Blood Moon, isn't that beautiful".
She held a dagger in her hand, and when Brian began backing off, she stabbed him repeatedly and now Brian was dead. She dragged him towards the same ditch and buried him. There was Blood on the Moon, in the heaven and so on Earth.
" It was never me who was meant to be buried in the earth, meant to die, it was always you. Because that is what one does to a person, to thing one can't live without, you preserve them". she was talking to Brian's lifeless body.
" The day I died, was the day I was reborn"
After this Angela kept on walking and walking and walking and with a secret so dark, she was gone. Gone to search her true love or was she gone to find that one last person who will be the jewel to her 'collection'.
