“Any word on the fate of 2-C?”
Scroggs sipped his coffee, shrugged. “I imagine they’ll keep it sealed.”
“Bloody hard time renting it after all that. Did you see the photos in the Sun?”
“Oh yeah. Shocking. Papers will run anything now, long as it’s horrible.”
“That it was.” She peered at the blue door that looked exactly like all the others in the complex. “Did you have any idea?”
“About him? No. Seemed a normal enough bloke. Kept himself to himself.”
“I never cared for the way he looked at me.”
“Well, he hated women. Proved that sure enough.”
The Brit details ain this little chiller re done well
Dear Josh,
A misogynist to the core of his little Scottish heart.. ;) No doubt C-2 got his just desserts. Me hat’s off to ye. Good one.
Shalom,

One great thing about being in prison is that the only woman you talk to is your mom. ;-) Thanks for reading
Nothing would surprise me about the occupant of 2C.
Well, I guess they know that about him for sure now …
I don’t think I’d care for 2C.
Perhaps best find me a place across town, you see.
On the plus side, it’s probably going at a bargain price now…
Grisly! Now you have me wondering how a real estate agent would set about trying to let a property like that…
Great dialogue, Josh. You put us right there.
We had a weirder-than-life incident in one of our rent houses. A cop lives there now.
I’m glad they nabbed him and hopefully welded him into a cell. I’d be sure to sage smudge the whole unit after disinfecting it.
You never can tell who really lives next door until they get caught…
Well done and great fun for those of us who’ve been around for a few years ;-)
Brrr. Gave me the shivers. Good writing.
Totaly believable dialogue!
Grim, the story and the Sun, a sensationalist rag of shite! Great story though, its always the quiet ones
It is always the quiet ones who keep to themselves, isn’t it?
Oh no, my mind runs amuck with what might have happened in 2-C. I’d surely not rent it not matter the discount!
The little details of colloquialism, was so subtly done that this came alive right off the screen for me.
