Tell-tale heart
by Cristian Santiago
1. 2. A madman does not plan an assassination so well
2. 3. I didn't hate the old man, but his vulture eye made me shudder
3. 4. I decided to kill him
4. 5. I lasted seven nights trying
5. 6. Every night, at midnight towards the attempt.
6. 18. I heard a short heartbeat
7. 19. I felt the police would be suspicious
8. 20. I heard her heart getting louder
9. 7. The vulture eye was not showing.
10. 8. Last night my ears get sharper
11. 9. When opening the door a ray of light fell on the vulture eye
12. 10. The old man listened but did not know what it was
13. 11. I feel more nervous
14. 12. I choked him with the covers until his heart stopped beating while I laughed
15. 13. I dismembered it
16. 14. Pick up two floorboards and hide the body
17. 15. A neighbor called the police
17.1. 1.I'm a little nervous, but I'm not crazy
18. 16. Police arrived
18.1. 17. I attended to them nonchalantly
