Betrayal.

"You, you son of a bitch," She screamed. Tears streamed from her eyes and the door cracked behind her.

"Honey, I can explain." I fumbled with the button. It wasn't working. "It's not what you think."

"You swore I was the only one." Her voice cracked as she raised her knife. Cold sweat dripped down my face as she backed me into the closet. There was no where left to run.

"You swore on every star that I was the one." The tears stopped falling. Her face burned red as her words seeped with rage. The knife trembled in her hand. This was it.

She raised the knife. I raised my hands to shield my face. A cool rush of air rushed past my hands. Ha, she missed! The knot in my stomach loosened as I opened my eyes. There it was. She fell back into the wall with a thud. The clothes rack fell on top of her as she collapsed to the ground with the knife sticking out of her gut. Blood pumped out staining the white carpet.

Her fading eyes locked on mine. "I swear by every star in the sky you will remember me." Then the last flicker of light faded from her eyes as I stepped out of the closet.
