A Game of Scrabble
David T. Wolf
Sometimes there's more at stake in a game of Scrabble than just victory.
In this short story, Vera’s marriage has been dead for years. So when she reconnects with a childhood sweetheart, she seizes the chance to re-ignite her heart. But the comedy-of-errors affair she stumbles into leads to unspeakable consequences. Humiliation should have been punishment enough. But the arrival of “good news” during a board game is sending her straight to hell. Yet in the end, she achieves a small but significant triumph.
