How he loved to wake up at night and admire her sleep.

She looked beautiful, like an angel in her white gown.

The moonlight cast a beautiful shadow on her face.

Why didn’t she understand that now they could afford to have a child?

He wiped the knife clean and decided to call police.

  2. Why would he kill her over something like that? What gave you this idea? There’s opemthing really wrong here!! (or maybe, as a nice literature student…. I’d give in to willing suspension of disbelief and agree that what happened was the right thing to do… as long as she’s dead and doesn’t return to take revenge :P)
