Growing Evil
“There is evil growing inside of you.”
“What?” the woman in the pink sweater said.
“Yes, you see how his forehead has a sharp spike here?” said the doctor in the white mask.
“Yes.”
“Then you’ll notice his rather longer, claw-like fingers. Most importantly, see how the spine resembles a six, and how his thumbs make the other two sixes.”
“What are you saying?”
“This child will never know the love of God. This child is a child of Satan.”
“What can we do?”
“Abortion.”
“All right. It’s not worth the risk of bringing the devil into our world.”
Dave, This was a very short story, but your story idea was very direct, to the point and left food for thought at your ending. Great idea. Henry
