Short Scary Stories

Jessica

My soul mate left me today. All he left was a pair of socks. And a note on the kitchen counter. "Read me" it said.

I started to read it.

"I just can't take it anymore Jess. You know I love you. I always will. Over the past few months things have gotten pretty bad the last few months. Yes it's her. She's following me again and I'm scared that if she found you, she would kill you. I'm sorry. I wish I could go into more detail but you will be home in a few minutes. I don't want to tell any of this to your face. It would destroy me to see you cry. -David"

Suddenly the door creaked open. Instinctively I grabbed a knife and hid.

"Hello?" Called a woman. I didn't answer. Instead I opens the door a little more to see the note on the counter. "Anyone in here?" She called out. "I'm not going to hurt you." She stepped into the kitchen. A Swiss Army knife was in her hand.

She picked up the note and started to read. Within seconds she started crying. The woman fell to her knees and dropped the knife.

I ignored every logical thing in my brain. I kicked the door open and thrust my knife into her.

"Welcome home Jessica." I whispered to her corpse.
