Hint Fiction

A few words can tell and entire story.


9 For Nothing
It had been a long, anticipated wait only to return home to a room full of tiny
new furniture, with no intent to use.


Clorox
Mommy always used it to clean and wash. I knew she’d be proud that I turned
the grape juice on her new orange sofa white.


He Cheated
Too bad it wasn’t the Fourth of July, otherwise I’d actually have an excuse
for the interrogating cop.


Illegal Fetish
Rope, check. 
Tape, check. 
Garbage bag, check.
Lollipops.
Set.

Family Finances
I left a letter so they wouldn’t be sad. I heard them say we’re broke but even
better I remember them saying it’s all at the end of the rainbow.
