Whoo, that’s dark. I like it! :)

I am hoping that Toby was the pet cat .. sad one, this. Thanks for entering.

passed should be past, I walked past in the first line.
so many cliche’s..
i knew it was going to be her mother, so many clues. The only question here is, who is toby? I guess there is another, why can she confess it now?

Hey ElshaHawk, thanks for the correction. Sorry you felt it was cliché. I never intended it to be a secret that it was her mother she was visiting. I thought it was pretty obvious as I was writing anyway. I don’t really understand your last comment though I imagined as I was writing this that she went straight to her mother after committing the deed. Toby is Toby. Could be human could be an animal. I doesn’t really matter. He was just something important to the mother.

Anyway thank you for the comment. I’ll keep it in mind for future stories.
