She Left Me in the Storm

When a massive hurricane headed toward our city, officials declared the entire area a high-risk zone and ordered everyone to evacuate.

But my fiancée, Mabel Payne, refused to leave. Her adopted younger brother, Jason Payne, suffered from severe trauma, and he wouldn't budge.

On the first day, Jason took a high-powered slingshot and shattered the expensive hurricane-resistant windows I had installed.

On the second day, he flushed our entire supply of emergency medications down the toilet.
