She was different from all the other girls. She didn't wear makeup caked onto her face. She didn't wear clothes the looked like they belonged on a prostitute. She was conservative. Beautiful. She was smarter than the others, too. She kept all her locks locked so guys like me couldn't get her. And she had one thing the others didn't. A child.

"Mommy! Can we go now?" Jeremy asked.
"Not yet honey. We have to wait for your daddy." She told him. They were in the airport waiting for her husband. Derrick.

"Look mommy!" Jeremy yelled. "It's daddy!" He yelled. She picked him up walking to Derrick.

"Jessica" Derrick said pulling her into a kiss. Jeremy acted like he was gagging. "Baby I've missed you." Derrick told her.

"I missed you, too." I heard her tell him. She was a vision of beauty. The way she held herself and her son. It made me want to take her home right now. But I knew I couldn't. But her husband was home. I was going to have to wait. But I will wait as long as it takes.

A month. Her husband has been home a month and I haven't gotten closer to her.

I miss her coming into my store when I first met her ...

She walked in browsing through the produce section with a little boy on her hip. He giggled at her when she tickled his neck. She looked confused. So I approached her. She needed help with finding chili powder. So I helped her find it and got it off the top shelf for her. She thanked me. But as I was handing it to her our hands met. My fingers brushed against her soft hand. And in that moment I knew I had to have her.

"Honey, I'll be right back. Watch Jeremy." she told her husband. I followed her to the women's restroom. I waited for an sign someone was in there. No one. So I followed her in. She didn't seem to notice me. She went into the bathroom stall. I pulled out a cloth and doused it with peroxide. As soon as she opens the stall I pressed it to her face. She thrashed around but she went limp. She'll be out for a while. I pulled on her glasses from inside her purse and put them on her to make it look like she was awake. I held her up and walked out of the bathroom. No one seemed to notice. I passed by her husband but he was busy with Jeremy.

Once we were outside I put her in my van. And drove home. She was still knocked out. I put her in my bedroom and chained her to the bedpost.

I made her some food for to eat after she wakes. I made her some soup.

She woke up confused. She recognized me and asked for help. But I couldn't let her go. She didn't seem to realize this. I left her for a moment so she wouldn't be as upset.

I came back later and sat with her. I read to her. And I even put on the TV for her. I wanted to lay and sleep beside her but I couldn't. I knew she would hate me forever.




The cops were getting close. Her husband has been trying to get close to me. I couldn't let them get her. She was mine. No one could have her.

She was special to me. And I've always wanted her as mine. She was different from the others.

All she cries for her son. She wishes to be with him at home. But I cannot allow it. I love her way to much!


I took him! He was with the nanny. I took him away from the park. He was with his older cousin. She wasn't paying him no attention. I'll be sure to tell his mother. She loved Jeremy so much and frankly I was jealous.

"Jeremy! What is he doing here?" she screamed. I thought she would have been happy. Why is she upset? Why can't she just be satisfied with anything?

"why are you never satisfied?!" I roared. This was it. I took her away from her family so she could be with me and be my queen, but never has she thanked me! And now I take her son and she yells at me!

I grab the knife from my pocket and kill her. She screams bloody murder. Jeremy screams at the top of his lungs. I was covered in her disgusting blood. Before I knew it Jeremy was gone. Running down the street. Before I could get him my neighbor shot me. The last thing I saw was Jeremy being comforted by my neighbors wife before I saw the blinding light.



"Say goodbye Jeremy." Daddy said sniffling.
"bye mommy! I love you. I hope the angels are taking good care of you!"

Daddy cried picking me up. We climbed into the car saying goodbye to mommy forever.
