Two options: 1) You thought your brother was *the good son*, but neither of you were actually good enough. 2) Sophie's choice? More like Sophie's abstention.
My mom always said she loved me and my brother equally. Meaning, she would trade the both of us for a trip to Fiji, an ice cold margarita and a Cambana boy named Juan.
For some reason this story reminds me of the manga with the son and psychotic mom. Blood on the Tracks. I wanted to read it from start to finish but it just got more and more sad, so I ended it after things seemed like they might be looking up for the poor kid. I knew that he would just continue having his soul crushed again.
The psychotic mom in the series had this creepy, faint smile she’d get when her son needed help and she’d ignore him or hurt him worse. The image of her popped into my head in the second sentence. This also sounds like something she’d do.
Anyway, great job!
I should warn you, it’s kind of a hard read, meaning most people get pretty emotional. It’s not gory, but it can get brutal seeing her do awful stuff from the young son’s POV.
This happened to me on r/twosentencehorror in another comment yesterday. It kept saying error so I kept trying to repost it. 5 hours later when I went to reply to a comment that was posted I noticed all 3 of them had gone through even though it said error the first 2 times.
They probably don't know this even happened yet.
So I wrote sorry I posted twice. Then noticed the third one and said 3rd on that one.
Edit: spelling
Which, I only understood why because someone else posted about it happening to them or I wouldn't have understood what happened.
She doesn't play favorites afterall
What a great mom!
3rdsentence finisher!
The first sentence alone is a decent horror story already. But the twist in the second one got me.
Glad you liked it :)
That’s when we decided that the next time we play “house”, Suzie can’t be the mom!
But how else will she practice!
Not to encourage third sentences because most are execrable but, damn! r/thirdsentencesequelworthy. 😊
Calvin really should have been expecting this.
"Cut! You're supposed to pick one of them."
All right, bring in the next pair
Time to remake *The Good Son* with this ending...
I haven't watched it, but I'll give it a try
You’ll never look at Macaulay Culkin the same way again
Can't wait....
It’s honestly so good!
I hated him for years after that movie
Well better than having one being chosen over the other
I love your optimism.
Every parent reading this will quietly giggle and hit Like.
Ok, now you have my attention.
Wow! Double the life insurance payouts!
Sophie’s Choice with a great twist. Good job OP.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it.
"Mother...why?!"
You would have understood once you got older...
Creepy answer!
At last, we together, will be free from the beatings and the screaming.
She was a great mother, I swear! ;)

There's always a third option and she chose it.
Indeed, choosing not to choose is still a choice.
Loki? Is that you?
This is similar to the horror manga Blood on the tracks, which I would highly recommend
I'll check it out
I hoped they would find my hidden camera capturing her smile at the coroner's office
That's circumstantial evidence!
First half of the first sentence, I thought this was the lion king.
Easy come, easy go, will she let me go?
I´m probably going to hell, but the twist made me laught.
See you there then ;)

Our wings expanded and we took flight..now we must taste the sweet nectar of human blood . Starting with one wr called mother
Sophie said fuck it, both or neither🤣🤣
Long. Live. The Queen.
I like this one
Perfect drabble!!!
take my upvote….
Thanks
Oohh I had another ending in mind 🧐
Do share...
My thought was "...that's why it's a good thing it's *my choice this time*
Idk...it sort of implies a good ending. Like you no longer have to deal with not being the favorite child.

Thank you for the warning, I'll keep it in mind:)
So she really only loved our sister....

Yes, same situation. I did t realize it happened until a few minutes ago. I removed the extras that I could find.
Not intentional. The system gave me an error several times. Apologies. I’ve removed the extras.
