Losing Faith

Beth, having disappeared from the university, might not cause Rufus any problem. However, her friend Faith was a different matter.

Faith was not forgiving, as Rufus found out early one evening when she came to his door and started to shout her mouth off in his doorway.

“You’ve got a bloody nerve...” she started.

Rufus, concerned other students might pop heads out to see what was going on, grabbed Faith behind the neck with one hand and gagged her with the other, dragging her forcibly into his room.

Rational Rufus decided she had to die there and then!

Strangled silence.
