Sinister

1. Her shoe sole came off with a loud rip as she hurried through the bustle of people to the arrival gate.

Such a bother, it was already late.

No matter, the flight never landed.

2. She shut the book that was resting on her knees while her back leaned on the wall.

"So the policeman had eaten the bloody leg of lamb... Hmmm..."

She got up to serve her husband his evening tea.

3. She was so sweet that you'd warm up to her the moment you saw her.

It's only when she opened her mouth that you realised she held the whole world in there, engulfed in a raging fire.

4. On her son's 20th birthday, she sat staring at his 10 year old photo, wishing he were alive.

Doorbell rings.

No one of significance; just his sister.
