She put her lips to my head (to my left temple) and drawled as slowly as my blood had started to flow at the sight of her. "Yo-o-ou-a-a-a-re-e-m-i-i-ne-no-o-ow." With my peripheral vision, I saw a dimple on her chin. It's as if her words ricocheted and left this human mark on her otherwise unearthly perfect face. "Next time you pull the trigger, try to aim a bit closer to my ear," I thought. "There won't be next time," the dimple grew and swaddled me like a baby. Swallowed me. So warm. So calm. And I'm forgetting how to breathe.

I'm simultaneously confused and wanting to run away screaming. I think my favorite line, and one of the more pertinent to the creepy, is: "It's as if her words ricocheted and left this human mark on her otherwise unearthly perfect face." What a unique concept, making a dimple a vehicle for horror. 🤔
Gosh this was so creepy and so well done!
Andrei, this was a rather dark and twisted story. I quite enjoyed it, even read it a couple times over! Nicely done!
