Hello, Bill,
Excellent entry for the 100 Word Dash Contest.
It's a complete flash fiction story about a couple in the worse situation possible. I didn't expect the ending. Well done. :)

Wow. I was not expecting that last sentence. You did a super job with setting up the scene, creating suspense and misleading the reader. I hope you win!

Oh no...expletive deleted. What a great plot and ending. In 100 words you created the introduction, middle and end. What a surprise the ending is. This is such good writing it deserves A+.

Oh man! I had a feeling about midway through. Dang, poor adoring dude but I guess, or hope he died still thinking of his adoration. This is well written and entertaining for sure.

This is a well-written story and very interesting. Your details made the scenario suspenseful. The wife being the assassin was a surprise and a twist ending. It just goes to show that sometimes one can be sleeping with the enemy unaware.

Yikes! That was certainly a surprise. His wife was the hit man. Well, at least, he knew it was coming and accepted it. What a shocker, though. Great story in these few words.

This is a well written crime story entry for the 100 Word Dash. We all need to be mindful in this pandemic time. It's either guns or germ warfare. Well done!
