Twenty Years

 

Patrick made his way up to his home. Wet mud was sticking to his boots. He let himself in, put some logs on the fire, sat down, closed his eyes, let his mind drift …

To twenty years ago when things had been so much different. He remembered holding his boyfriend Aaron in his arms in their bed, stroking his fingers through his hair …

… but then it had turned sour like the bitter taste of stale beer. He found Aaron and his sister Kate in that same bed. He stabbed them to death and that’s how he came to be here.
