WRITING OBSTACLE

Debt

Recording

Split

Write a 10 line story containing these three words, in any order you wish. They must make coherent sense in the story.

The Tape

That recording. That stupid recording. Why did I ever keep that tape? Ten years later and it ruined my marriage. I wish she never found it. I wish she would have stopped snooping through my shit. She had no idea how much debt I had been in when I made that tape. When we got married, I thought we would never split. Who knew my past would so easily resurface after my wife found the tape in the garage? Why did I keep that fucking tape?! The boss said I’d be rich and free if I could provide proof of my last contract. All I had to do was show him the tape and then destroy it. Why did I keep that tape?! She thinks I’m a monster because I killed a man. She doesn’t even know that he wasn’t the first…and won’t be the last.
