Brian looked into his wife’s eyes and sighed.
“I’m so sorry it ended like this” he said “I wanted it to work but I realise we want different things.”
Carla said nothing, staring back expressionless.
“I know” Brian continued. “I know it’s my fault I just…”
Brian paused, he had hoped for something. Anything.
“Fine, just fine” he said picking up his shovel and tipping soil over Carla’s already stiffening body. “Silent treatment it is…”
Nice twist at the end… Very cool! 🙂
