Nice little short story Bev and you covered a fair bit of ground in only 146 words my friend...short and sweet and the tale of a jealous pregnant ex who has it in for the current squeeze. I liked how you just bowled in with this and it unfolded in just a few words. A sad and sorry end to poor innocent Tessa. Should it perhaps not have been the two timing ar*ehole, that speck on the horizon though, that should have had his gizzards and spleen cut out?
Me thinks YES! LOL
Excellent short horror story. Had me quaking in my boots! hee hee
Cheers Closet xoxo

Hi Closet. Naturally I lost the contest to Ron. I love him and razz him quite regularly, so I told him I'm going to check to see what contests he enters BEFORE I enter anymore. I love writing the flash pieces, so I probably won't be quitting anytime soon.
I really appreciate you taking so much time to review my recent efforts, Closet. This story was fun to write and I have a soft spot for it in my heart, so I am very happy to see that you enjoyed its creepiness! You're the best! Warmest regards, Bev

Always a pleasure.

I enjoyed reading this short flash fiction story. It leaves me with so many questions. I was not expecting "As burning steel rips open her intestines..." What a suprise! Very good job!

Oh my gosh, Bev, this is a stunning story. You should have entered it into the Horror contest as it would have won hands down! The end was a complete surprise which every author aspires to do but not all accomplish it as well as you have done here. Excellent. Well worth six stars. Blessings, chey

Gosh, you've got me blushing chey. I am so honored by your great review and stars. I'm finding I really love the short pieces. They are very challenging, just like the Japanese short poetic forms. You have really made my day and put a big smile on my face. Blessings...Bev

Billy, where are you - add comma for direct address
Oh, what a horrific ending - burning steel rips open her intestines - as the baby is ripped out - how gruesome!!! A truly creepy horror story within the strict word limits of this contest. Brooke

Thanks so much Brooke. I appreciate you pointing out that SPAG! I'm not so much into horror, so I thought I would push the limits with this one. Therefore, I especially appreciate your encouragement for the effort. Warm regards.
Comment from Caeric il produttore
Not bad, decently written, but the characters feel flat and the ending comes out of nowhere. Not a bad read, but it has potential to be better...

Comment from The Stranger
A woman scorned in love takes her revenge in devastating fashion against the woman she believes has stolen away her Billy, as the child looks on in horror

Comment from Laurie Clayton
A grusome end indeed for our poor
Mother, I wonder how the child was not hurt also.
Jealousy is a mighty powerful and negative enery
to be gripped by.
Well written with ease of flow.
Good luck with the comp.
