No narration. Just voices-and one of them may not survive the conversation.In Othello Jones, a former teacher and his ex-student collide in a shopping mall. What starts as a chance meeting quickly escalates into a battle of language, lust, and buried rage. Told entirely through raw, unfiltered dialogue, this short story explores the razor-thin line between love and destruction.As the student provokes, seduces, and confesses, the teacher unravels-and the past demands violent resolution. In just a few explosive pages, Othello Jones examines hypocrisy, power, and the words that can push us to the edge.Available as this Short Single or as part of the collection Urban Tales Charles W.
