The Slit-Mouthed Woman by Janae Snell (ebook and pdf reader TXT) 📕

Sachiko*****

I met up my fiancé at a restaurant and told him the biggest news “I…think I’m pregnant” I told him and he raised his eyebrows “Really?” he said “Yes” I said, “Should I keep the baby?” I asked him “Of course!” he said leaning forward “No more living apart though” he said I thought about how his father is “But what will your father say…? I asked him “This is our life, not theirs” he said, “What can they say if we tell them you’re expecting?” he said folding his hands in front of him “But…” I said lean forward

“It’ll be a fresh start for us” he said, “You have to tell Yukie and Mayumi, too” he said to me. I sat there nodding my head.

I was in my room brushing my hair when Yukie came into the “Hey, you scared me” I said to her laughing, “I have to talk to you” she said holding a dress in her hands “I found this in Mayumi’s room” she said putting the bloody dress in front of me. I was shocked “What is this?” I asked her putting the brush down slowly “Blood stains” she said shaking the dress in front of me. I pulled my hands away from the bloody dress “She’s involved somehow…in those incidents” she said, “What are you saying?” I asked her trying to believe what I’m seeing. Yukie kneeled down in front of me “Look at this” she said putting it closer to me.

“We have to go to the police,” she said. I put the brush down and stood, walked over someplace else “Sachiko” she said as I sat down on the bed “We can’t” I said “What?” she said “Promise me, you won’t…do you know what will happen if we go to the police?” I asked her

“What do you mean…?” she asked me “Our names will be all over the news as if we don’t have enough problems already” I said “We won’t be able to live anywhere, it would ruin everything it’s a important thing for you too, right? If this gets around, you can forget about your career,” I told her.

“What should we do, then?” she asked me fiddling with the bloody dress in her hands “Just give me some little time…please…” I said. Sitting there looking Yukie was hard for me to think.

Mayumi*****

I went into my room and started to organize my room but when I looked up I noticed something different, my closet door was open. Someone has been in my room. I walked over to the door and opened it. I could not believe my eyes someone found the dress, the dress I was wearing when I killed Captain…

“The police and Local search parties are doing their best. His classmates and relatives have been so worried. If he’s alive, we want him back as soon as possible. Please call in with any information. Anything!” a girl on TV was crying about Captain.

Yukie looked at the TV then me “The tabloids are saying this could be another murder case” some people were saying on the TV. “Why…? He’s such a good kid why would anyone want to hurt him?”

I ate my food and I could feel Yukie and Sachiko eye’s on me as I ate.

“I feel so sorry for his mom”

“He’s probably dead already right Mayumi?” Sachiko told me. Yeah they know I killed him and the others. I knew this was going to come.

I looked up and started to eat again. I could see Yukie and Sachiko looking at me from the corners of their eyes. I feel different around them now… It was awkward.

I slowly grabbed my scissors from behind my back, I felt strong and powerful. I laid the scissors on my lap and took a sip of my juice, but my juice tasted different like it made me sick to my stomach. I was just about to reach the spoon to my rice until I started to cough up blood; it splattered everywhere on the table and some got on Sachiko’s face, Yukie got up and started to pat my back “Mayumi! What’s wrong!” she yelled as she came by my side “Are you ok?” she said I kept coughing up more blood and little by little I felt as if everything inside me was shutting down.

“I’m sorry, Mayumi…” I heard Sachiko say as I cough loudly “what?” Yukie said with a disappointment on her face “there was no other way…” she said calmly “What are you talking about, Sachiko?” she asked her.

“I put rat poison in Mayumi’s juice” she said looking and watching me die slowly.

“But Mayumi’s going to die!” Yukie yelled looking at me and the blood everywhere around me “CALL ANAMBUALNCE!” She yelled at Sachiko. “We have to kill her!” Sachiko said arguing with Yukie “It’s the only way!” she said looking at me.

I looked up at her 

I didn’t know this would come to an end so quickly… I felt weaker and coughed up more blood and my eyes closed and I fell backwards barely alive but dying. They looked at me and watched me die on their floor along with mom and dad. I didn’t want them to win so easily.

Sachiko leaned forward to see if I was dead but I could see her barely just when she was close enough, I opened my eyes and cut her arm then I went back down.

Yukie****

I can’t believe we killed our little sister things had gone easy if we hadn’t poisoned her. Oh we messed up bad. I looked at her body then at Sachiko.

“Sachiko…” I said and she looked at me rubbing her arm where Mayumi cut her. Sachiko got up and ran to where the cleaning supplies are and she grabbed out the tub and a wet rag and started to clean up the blood. “You got your career right?” she said to me “You want your own shop right?” she said cleaning up the blood, I can hear her voice like she’s about to cry. She grabbed a coat and covered Mayumi’s body with it. I just sat there looking at Mayumi who was gone now. “Hurry!” Sachiko said cleaning up the blood I looked at the table and grabbed a rag, and started to help Sachiko clean up the blood. We drove somewhere where nobody goes “Do you understand…?” Sachiko asked me “Yes…” I said and continued to drive somewhere far. “What are you going to say?” she asked me “Mayumi…went to a hospital in Tokyo” I told her like she told me to say if any asks questions about her “Right…that’s it” she said nodding her head. We pulled up to a spot where we nobody goes. It was dark and foggy I couldn’t see a thing. Sachiko got out of the car and looked at me, I sighed and got out. We opened the truck where we had Mayumi, when we opened that truck I wish Sachiko hadn’t had done this but I wanted my shop and my career.

We started to dig deep with the shovels we brought from dad’s warehouse.

We threw her body into the hole and just stood there looking at her dead body then Sachiko started to cover her up with dirt then later I joined her. Mayumi I’m sorry…

Mayumi******

I feel like I’m going through a whole bunch of dimensions, I started to feel my own body sore and weak. I couldn’t breathe well and I couldn’t open my eyes, I had to get out of here. I started to dig my way out of the dirt and into the air. I took big breaths as I was out in the open. I started to walk back into Gifu. I was so mad at my two sisters that I decided to go Yukie first. I walked to her hair salon shop cause I know she’ll be working. I looked through the window and seen her cutting some woman’s hair. I was so mad at her I wanted to kill her right on the spot where she is standing right now. She looked up and seen me, her face went white as a sheet when she seen. I walked to the door and stood till someone came “Is it a customer?” I heard a woman say as she walked to the door where I was. When she opened the door for me I stuck the scissors in her stomach and twisted it so that it can do more damage in her organs that she’ll die quickly.

I made my way to Yukie when the woman fell. “Sorry…Mayumi…I” she said it looks like she can’t speak.

I started to open and close my scissors and was walking towards her “I didn’t know…” she said backing away from me “I didn’t know…I didn’t mean to…” she said begging me.

Her hand was bugging me as she held it out in front of her as if it was going to protect her so with my scissors I slashed them off and they fell to the ground. She looked at her hand was started to cry in pain, I smiled and she caught my gaze and I raised the scissors in the air and pushed it into her mouth. She feels to the ground and I took my scissors out of her mouth and left her there as if she was nothing to me.

Next was Sachiko

I walked to our home and spotted her car so I went inside and heard music playing so I walked to the sound and found her unpacking some of her stuff and her fiancé’s stuff. I was so mad, who does she is.

I scared her when she turned around “Mayumi…” I looked at her and opened my scissors “Why?” she asked me as she backed away from me she began to throw books at me like as if it was going to stop me.

I held my scissors above my head and cut her on the neck, she walked into the kitchen and grabbed a kitchen knife. She turned around and seen me, I could tell she didn’t know this was going to happen at all.

I raised my scissors high and was going straight to her face until she stabbed me. It went through my back; I leaned against her body for a minute and fell to the ground. She thinks this can stop me, it didn’t I got up slowly and took the knife out of my back. I could her begging for help, I ran as fast as I could to catch up with her. I know she couldn’t get away that fast, she’s losing too much blood right now and she’s too dizzy to run fast.

I seen her leaning against a wall and was trying to get to a populated area where she’s safe, not on my watch, with the knife she stabbed me with went through her multiple times. She was coughing up blood just like I was before. She turned around so she facing me, she slide down the wall so she was in a sitting position.

“Sachiko…. Am I…pretty?” I asked her when I asked her this she
