In the Closet

Barbara thought she heard the doorbell. Despite the anxiety, she opened it.

Stefan, seeing his frightened wife, immediately guessed. He was surprised, however, that he had barely entered and she turned her back on him… He followed her to the living room. She stood in front of the closet.

”What a bitch! I'll kill her, but first, him!”

She opened the closet and Stefan saw himself, dead.

She’d killed him! He'd probably faint if he wasn't a ghost.

Luckily, when she opened the door, there was nobody there.

She killed an alcoholic tyrant. But what to do with the body now?
