Temper Temper by Timothy Reynolds
Leon slammed the spade’s blade into the dirt cellar floor. “Hack my Facebook account will she? Bitch! No wonder Dad ran off with the babysitter-slash- cheerleader when I was ten.”
The pile of dirt grew. A car door banged shut. He dug faster, mumbling. “I’ll kill her, bury her, hack her Facebook account, and make it look like she’s travelling.” The shovel hit something hard. “What the hell?” He brushed off dirt. In the dim light it looked like two skulls and a pompom.
“Whatcha doing, Honey?”
Leon spun at the sound of his mother’s voice, but not fast enough.
