Captive Audience

by Dean Kuch



















Hear that?

 

My latest victim — I buried her here... in my cellar. She crawled out of the hole I dug, blindsided me, then tied me to this damn chair...

 

I can't see, but... I hear her movin' around. A moist, slushy sound; like golashes walkin' across wet grass.

 

“No — you're dead ... you keep away from me! I don't mean to hurt nobody. I'm sorry, I...”

 

Her hands ... so damn cold...

 

“Wait!  Not my blindfold. Oh, sweet Jesus, I'm sorry. Please, don't...

 

Oh, uh ... hello, officer. What brought you here? Care for a beer?”
