Silky Sweet Story

Silky Sweet Story
Matthew Ryan Fischer

Of all his victims, Sheila was Robert’s favorite. Her hair was soft and long and hung down her back to her waist. He loved the feel of it and loved touching it. After he killed her, he sewed her hair into a shirt he was working on. He thought this would give him a lasting connection to his many failed loves (or victims, depending on perspective). But when he put the shirt on, his victims’ ghosts had other plans. The shirt constricted, choking him tightly. He struggled but could not remove it. The ghosts had him. Sheila controlled the collar and made Robert suffer, prolonging his death for as long as possible. Slowly Robert passed, all the while thinking just how nice the shirt felt against his skin.
