My Son Branded Me a Murderer

On the day of the SAT English exam, my son spent two and a half hours writing nothing but a single essay.

The title was My Mother Is a Murderer.

It described, in careful detail, the whole process of how I killed my husband and sealed his body inside a wall.

A few days later, the grader who read it called the police at once.

Officers swarmed our house and broke open the very wall my son had written about.

When I saw what was inside that wall, I smiled.

My son, on the other hand, went mad.
