She has been using her tongue more, ever since he told her she was tasteless, she tastes it all with the muscle that was never strong enough to abandon him. She cannot stop feeling the new tongue in her mouth as it sits there, resting ironically on the roof of her mouth and slopping around after her self-awareness exposes an uncomfortability she never knew she had.
In the grocery store, she thinks about the muscle behind her lips, the thing few people get to see in her life, and fewer still get to feel it. With this thought, she rounds the store a few times sticking her tongue out to the backs of strangers, wondering of the reaction of anyone who may turn to see her. Though this never happens.
She heavily assumes the person would pretend they do not see her sticking out her tongue, because who in their right mind would stick their tongue out at strangers? They would simply avert their eyes and walk away.
In the back of her mind, she hoped someone would turn around and react as he did the first time, he saw her tongue. He wrapped it around his heart and made it his own, no matter how hard she tried to get it back he hung on tight, so much so the muscle became his heart, and in order for it to return to her mouth his heart had to stop beating.
A simple task for she was a simple monster, ghoul, demon whatever a word is for the wicked with ill wishes. Sitting down for dinner she wore the most extravagant gown-- the one he swore he would marry her in and cooked his favorite meal before taking his body into her own as his life depended on it.
She took his tongue into her mouth, gently at first, and with a gnash of her surprisingly sharp teeth she gnaws on his tongue. He started to push her off his person, though only helping her succeed in ripping his tongue from his shallow head.
After having his tongue, she made quick work of his heart and boiled it in the same hearth as the beef stew that seemed to be leaking from his mouth onto his bed of blood.
Strategically after eight hours of cutting and sewing, she had replaced her ex-husband’s tongue with his and waited for the next few months it will take to get accustomed to the new muscle.
