Playing God
They had no idea that he was watching them like a hawk.
And were oblivious to the fact that they had invited his wrath.
He adjusted his posture, to get a perfect aerial view of the targets and observed them patiently.
He smiled as he felt like God… their destiny in his hand.
Should it be a death by drowning or a one shot kill, he contemplated.
The noise outside caught his attention.
‘I will be back and drowning it will be for you two’, he said, as he captured the two bedbugs and placed them under a glass tumbler!

Haha that was a cute twist. I was wondering where it was going. A chilling start but a nice ending – not for the bedbugs though!

I was surprised by the ending. All along I thought you were talking about killing people on a hired hit or something. HA HA HA. By all means..kill those bed bugs!!

Ha ha, you made a fool of me by the fascinating narration that misled me to something very hideous.

💡 💡 Just for the sake of some consolation, I am thinking that the bed bugs might feel like they are playing God when they see a human coming to lie on the bed… they might await the arrival of their prey whose blood they would relish upon 💡 💡
