I creep up on the still grieving man.
I have to prove I can do it. So it can't be quick.
I stab the knife into his arm.
He tries to turn, but the knife is stopping him. He turns his head instead.
I take out the knife and stab him again, into his shoulder this time.
Again.
It doesn't matter where I aim, as long as it won't kill him immediately.
Again.
Then I start stabbing his back.
The knife almost goes straight through him.
Only when his back looks like a deformed piece of meat, do I stop.
Then I aim for his head.
His skull makes an audible sound when the knife goes through it.
And, for the first time, I gag.
I take out the knife and go downstairs.
