It was the old man, living in his old house... no, it wasn't the old man, it was his eye. The man had never done anything to me; never insulted me, never wronged me. No, it was his Evil Eye that I so detested. It looked like a vulture's... pale blue and filmy. The eye had to go... so of course, the old man did as well. |

I was never kinder to that old man than I was in the week before I killed him. He never suspected that each night, while he slept, I crept up to his room and silently stuck my head through the door. I was patient, sometimes taking an hour to just get my head through the door.And still the man slept on... for in the darkness, he couldn't see a thing. |
