sure to stay there a few minutes just to make sure he didn’t have any life in him anymore. Once she was sure, she just sat there for a few minutes. She looked down at his lifeless body and became angry. She jumped to her feet, walked over to Anna, and pulled the knife from her leg. She rushed over to Jacob and slashed him across the face.
    “THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT; THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT.”
    “Please, oh my God, please stop, my son, you killed my son.”
    “And I’m just getting started.”
    As Jacob sobbed for his son, Annabelle walked over to Anna and stood behind her.
    “Jacob, look at me. LOOK AT ME!” Annabelle screamed.
    She waited for Jacob to raise his head and look their way.
    “This is all your fault.”
    “I FUCKING HATE YOU, RAYMOND, I FUCKING HATE---.”
    Anna felt nothing but pure hate for her husband as she screamed and belted out her last words.
    Annabelle raised her hand high in the air and came down hard. The knife entered Anna’s heart and came back out cutting off her last words. Over and over again, to the point that both Annabelle and Jacob lost count. She didn’t stop until she had another lifeless body in that room.
    “Just kill me. I can’t take this shit. You have taken everything that I have loved from me.”
    Annabelle walked to where she left her phone and picked it up with her bloody right hand. She called Reverend Bell and waited for him to answer.
    “I am at 33434 Good Luck Rd. By the time the cops get here, there will only be one alive.”
    “Annabelle, what have you done, what have you done?” the reverend asked.
    “Tell them to ask Jacob, I mean, Raymond when they get here.”
    Annabelle ended the call and looked down at her watch. She only had a few minutes to speak to the love of her life. She really didn’t need him to say anything, she just wanted to make her point. She pulled out the gun that was in her bag and made her way over to her lover. Jacob’s eyes grew big out of fear.
    “Don’t worry, my love, this bullet is not for you,” she said as she stroked his face.
    “See, letting you live is the biggest injustice that I could ever do to you. Every morning when you wake up, you will have to face the truth. Everything that happened here today happened because of you. You killed not only your wife, but your innocent son. I want you to remember this for the rest of your life. I love you, Jacob… yeah, I know, that’s not your real name but you will always be Jacob to me.”
    With his sobs as the soundtrack to her grand exit, Annabelle lifted the gun to her mouth, slid it in as if it were Jacob’s chocolate stick, and pulled the trigger. Moments after, the door to the house came tumbling down, almost representing what was left of Jacob's life, and the cops came rushing in.

Liar, Liar
    As the cops and paramedics went around the room trying to piece things together, the lead detective walked over to the stretcher where Raymond was being tended to and asked one question.
    “What happened here tonight, Mr. Mitchell?”
    At first, Raymond couldn’t find the words. He racked his brain as he tried to get his thoughts together. So much had happened that night, so much was said, but there was just one thing that remained the truest.
    “I lied.”
     
     
     
     

Epilogue – The Perfect Match
    As Raymond lay in the hospital, the detective interrogated him. He hated the fact that he had to relive the horror that took place on Good Luck road, but it was necessary. He couldn’t believe that his lies had taken him down such an ugly road that would forever be paved with the blood of his wife and child. As much as he hated therapy at times, in that moment, all he wanted to do was see Reverend Bell and ask him one question… would he ever be okay? Raymond couldn’t imagine life without the two people he loved the most, but he also couldn’t help question if he really ever loved them at all. Because of him and his double life, they were dead. How could he love his wife
