Murder

As the wind,hollowed outside her window,Arianna felt that something was not right. The sensations that crawled across her skin,made her feel even more uneasy. Why was her husband out in the yard on a night like this? As she dressed,she heard her husband come in. Would she dare ask him what he was doing or was she to fearful....These past few weeks were not great .Her husband lost his job at Wilfred and Pine,who he had been with for years,but after his mistake they had to let him go. As lawyers go,he was a good one but one mistake with a client,and all was lost. She had tried to find out why but all she kept hearing was"Don't worry about it honey,everything will turn in our favor". Well she was worried,he had been acting strange ever since. Late nights out,wrong numbers in the middle of the night,things that were just out of the ordinary for her husband.

Arianna continued to get dressed,as she looked in the mirror,she thought that she was still a fine looking women and at 50.,she was aging gracefully.Her husband joined her in the bedroom."How was your day,honey?"It was o.k. ,.It's very hard to find a new job at my age...but we'll get by.I know something will turn up very soon and all our problems will be over." Arianna shivered,the tone in his voice was not what she expected.

Carlos,looking at his wife,thought that he was one lucky fellow. His wife had been by his side for more than thirty years but in a short while ,she wouldn't be with him very long...He had no other choice,it was either him or her..He had everything prepared,all that was left was the final act. It would be a robbery and a brutal one at that.

As they both slipped into bed,and said there good nights,little did she know that this would be her last goodnight...Carlos watched as she drifted of to sleep.Arianna had a feeling of dread and knew that her husband was watching her. Alot of thoughts raced through her mind,she knew her husband very well,but was he capable of what she was thinking .Was she the solution to there problems??? As she got up,her husband asked what she was doing? "I'm going to get a warm glass of milk,she replied..go back to sleep,I'll be up in a few minutes."

Carlos thought to himself,I can't do this while she's awake..I can wait a few more hours...Fighting his sleep,he drifted of...Arianna was down stairs,in his study,she thought if he was thinking of doing something dreadful ,he would have left some clues. As she tried each and every drawer,she came to one that was locked. She looked around the desk,to find something she could pry it open with..As she slowly worked the latch,the drawer opened. As she looked inside she found insurance papers,if she died ,he would claim close to two million dollars. She became uneasy and very scared,she sifted through more of the papers and there in his own handwriting was the plan...A robbery and she was to brutally slain and her husband would be attacked as well but he would live but not she...the papers floated to the floor,she was taken aback.How could her husband plan something like this and how was she to get out of this...Before she left the den,she cleaned up and left everything as she had found it.
