The Intruder

February 14, 2022


“My last and final wish is to be buried alongside my husband. Can you make that happen?”
“Who the heck are you?!” Screamed the man, who had been fast asleep. He squirmed in terror- some random woman was sat on top of him, staring deep into his soul.
“Promise me. You owe me this, don’t you think?”
“Who are you?! What do you want!”
“Promise me you’ll put me close to my handsome companion. He and I ought to spend eternity together, it’s only natural.”
The man was able to push the woman off of him. She fell and hit the floor hard, making a loud thud. The man jumped out of bed and ran for his phone. He dialled 911.
“911, what’s your emergency?”
“There’s some woman in my bedroom! I woke up and she was sitting on me! Send some cops!”
“Are you hurt, sir?”
“No but she might be, I pushed her and now she’s laying on the floor.”
“Ok, a vehicle should be there soon, sir.”
“Thank you.” 
The man hung up the phone and went back to the woman's body. He began to feel sorry for pushing her. He picked her up and gently carried her down the hall. They entered the bathroom. He placed the woman in the tub before filling it with warm water. He grabbed a bottle of bubble-bath and poured it in. He hoped that her muscles would be loosened up and relaxed by the time the police arrived.
