Nana rocked in her old wooden rocking chair. “Timmy, you have always been my favorite,” she said. He looked at her. “Nana, I’m Bobby.”

Read your diary, discovered your secret. I thought I loved you, but now I’m not sure. Don’t know what to do, you look so human.

Clowning was Daryl’s profession, cooking was his passion. Stella thought he was perfect. She liked to laugh and never learned to cook.

Alex bought Sharon a ring for Valentine’s Day, which she sold to buy the gun that stopped him from loving her.

About the Author

Sean Hill writes the @VeryShortStory Twitter feed.

Read an Excerpt

On family :
I watched you walk by in your high heels and short skirt. My friends whistled but all I could think about was when you used to be my Dad.

On sex :
I answered the ad for “slave wanted”, ready for some adventure. That’s when I met Sheila, who was celibate, but needed a lot of chores done.

On death :
I clawed my way through Friday, determined to get to the weekend. At 5 o'clock, I ran out of work straight into the bus Death was driving.
