Lamb to the Slaughter

Dear Diary,

The frustrations and feelings I had experienced today were indescribable. I could not believe the fact that I have killed my husband with a frozen lamb leg. I was simply too shocked and furious at that moment and did not think about the consequences of my own actions.

After the police left, for some reasons, I felt relieved. They had actually eaten up the evidence against me. For that, I would not need to go to jail. Although I would not be prosecuted, I feel devastated that my husband had passed away. I really loved him. How I wished that all these did not happen and that he had not mentioned the word 'divorce'. At that moment, it broke my heart. Now, I pity my child as he would be born without a father.

Love,
Mary Maloney
