OK, here goes:
Murder in the Dark
It was dark where he sat, watching. The only light in the room drifted down to his face so that, had anyone been able to observe him, they would have seen him outlined by it, limned in a ghostly halo of fuzzy light. But he had intruded on the scene in front of him, and he sat enraptured, hardly moving as he watched the lovers caress one another. He could even hear their endearing whispers. The door to the room swung open and the boy saw another person in the doorway. He could see that it was a woman even though her face was in shadow, the light from the hallway at her back, a dark figure no more defined than black silk. She saw the same scene that he was witnessing, yet from a different vantage point, and the woman was at first as still and quiet as himself. Then, she moved out of the light, determination in her step, until the boy could no longer see her in the unlit room. The music that had been playing changed suddenly from a romantic ballad to a tune of expectancy, or perhaps it was his imagination. The boy's pulse beat faster. He felt like a voyeur, but he could not bear to look away.
A struggling "oooof", then the sound of someone falling. The music had died. The sound of heavy breathing, and perhaps a flicker of movement to the right? What could be happening? His bladder was nearly full to bursting and he longed to get up out of this cramped sitting position and relieve himself. Yet he could not look away from what he strained to see. Something terrible was happening, he knew it, could sense it. He felt he could not bear the suspense. He had to know what was going on in front of him, no matter the cost, no matter if he wet himself, no matter if he was seen.
So he sat very still and listened until he heard the scream he knew was coming. It was then that he saw the shadowy figure slip out of the room, turning only once to look back at what she had done. Still, her features were not discernable. Who was she?
The boy remained in the dark, watching the murderess slip out the door. But what could he do? He didn't even know who she was...
And then his bladder could wait no longer. He arose from his seated position, standing carefully to relieve the cramps in his legs.
The music rose to a deafening roar again, startling him. People started yelling,"Sit down! You're in our way! We can't see!" and the boy moved to his left, and up the aisle of the movie theatre, urine dripping down his leg. He should not have waited so long, he knew it. His mother would surely punish him when he got home. But he couldn't help it: murder mysteries had always captivated his attention. Maybe he would even be a movie producer one day himself. Who could tell?
