Living Well Is The Best Revenge

So for Chuck Wendig’s most recent flash fiction challenge we had to write a 100 word story on the subject of revenge. So here we go:

Belinda sat with her back against the cold metal doors of the walk-in fridge and took a sizeable bite out of the chicken drumstick she held in her clenched fist. From the other side of the door came muffled banging and screaming.

“I would let you out, honey, but you slept with my husband.” Belinda shouted through a mouthful of chicken.

Five minutes later she checked her watch and gracefully stood, her Prada gown falling over her new Louboutins.

“You know what they say,” she said as she switched off the kitchen light, “revenge is a dish best served cold.”
