The Choices Of Fate

After their mother’s death, Kate and Amelia Morse face a cruel choice—only one can leave with their grieving grandmother. Believing wealth awaits, Amelia departs, only to find an ordinary life. Years later, envy consumes her when Kate marries into the wealthy Warren family. In a fit of rage, she kills her sister before taking her own life.

The knife feels heavier than I expected. Cold. Familiar—Mother used it to cut apples for our lunches, once. Now it’s buried in Kate’s side, and her breath hitches like she’s surprised. I am too.

She stares up at me, blood on her lips, wedding ring catching the chandelier light. 'You were supposed to be happy,' I whisper. That’s what Grandma said—'You’ll have everything.' But all I got was silence and paychecks that never covered rent.

She married Julian Warren. Lived in a mansion with gardens that bloom year-round. Me? I lived in her shadow, watching her life unfold on social media like some cursed fairy tale.

Now she’s dying, and I don’t feel free. I feel empty.

Outside, snow falls softly over Newport. The guests are still drinking champagne. No one heard her scream.

I have minutes before they find us. I can run. I can call 911. Or I can press the blade deeper and end it here.
