Another story:



It had been hours since Brian had had any actual human contact. For the last hour he convinced himself that the monitor he was staring at for the last 4 months of his life was killing him. His theory was the monitor was emitting radiation which was causing the tumor in his head to grow rapidly and that one day his head would explode leaving gray matter all over the screen and the cubicle walls. Brian had a problem.



Susan stood up and instantly saw Brian with a dazed look on his face (his head had just exploded). Susan liked Brian when he joined the QA department but now it was different. All day long he would stare at his screen with a mindless gaze as he performed his testing. It appeared as though Brian had no idea that he was working in the first place. For all intensive purposes he was dead.



Susan walked over and stood behind Brian. He didn’t notice her.



It started to rain.



Susan had once loved Brian. After he started in QA they dated and had married a year later. They were still married, but now Brian was gone. Susan had no idea where he had gone, but he was gone now.



Click.



Brian’s tumor throbbed.



Bang!



They fell.



Susan felt the pain drain from his eyes, as she lifted the gun and placed it by her heart. This was the end. It was over.
