Gah... I wrote this last weekend and have been fretting whether i should put it up or not, but Clubs persuaded me. It's a prequel to another story I have in the back of my head, it totally makes sense for this character, who is in reality a freakishly careful person to try run something before going for the kill.
And I can totally indentify with this woman... not to the extremes, but my elder brother got screwed around much the same way as the brother in the story, and I have never felt rage the way I did when I saw my brother sobbing his heart out on my Mum's lap over it, so I can totally understand how that could unhinge some-one who wasn't too balanced to start with.
Anyway, if it's not your cup of tea, kindly move along, otherwise, let me know...
