The Lost Of Two

Winter was closing in i was polishing a wedding ring that i tend to a pose to my future wife. Ive bin waiting for this for almost year. I was going to do it last year but i was deployed in Iraq but finally am able to go home and surprise her with the ring.
When i got back home in town i went to my favorite flower shop picked up a dozen of her favorite roses. I stuffed them in the trunk of my SUV . I started speeding when i got half way to are home. When i finally made it home i ran out of my car not even bother to close it. I searched room to room couldn’t find her i heard the laundry rumbling down stairs i quickly ran down stair to something i diffidently didn’t want to see. The wife i promised to marry having an affair with her long time friend. The next thing at that point was so much a blur but i knew i had my pistol in my hand and heard a woman screaming a fire went off a woman hit the ground a second shot went off a man falls to the floor. A home of pass happiness now filled with murder.
