You’ll never be the same
9h03 am. I was supposed to be working like every other day, but instead I hear a big crash over my head. People cry, asking for help. I can’t see anything besides the endless number of bodies. The whole room smells like death. I try to move, I can’t. The rescue squad gets in, bringing hope to the faces around. One, two.. I can’t count anymore. Why are them going straight to the others while I'm still here? A voice on my mind: “it’s procedure giving attention to the ones you can still save...”
The shadow of a secret
“I love you like I never did before”. Denny whispered.“I also love you but my father would never allow us to be together!”. Khristie sighed. “My mother hates your family, specially your father. If she knew you’re carrying my baby she could even die of discontentment”. Someone screams. “Khristie, where are you? Please Don’t tell me you’re with that boy!”. “Your father! Our only opportunity to scape is now!” They ran away, moved to a country nearby and started a new life with their baby, totally unaware of the fact that they were siblings.
A Disturbing Discovery
She ran as fast as she could, screaming for help, but it wasn’t enough. The man grabbed her arm and pulled her closer, saying: “calm down, honey! I just want to remind you that you should never trust someone you’ve just met!”. Scared, she fiercely replied: “I don’t know you! Leave me alone! Let go of me!”. Then, the man, with watered eyes, answered: “It’s not your fault, honey... You can’t remember because you suffer from recent memory loss, that’s why I came back to warn you. Listen, Lisa, I’m your father!”. “Father!...How!?...You!??... Who are you?! Release me!”.
The Other
Are we alone, indeed?
It was midnight, she listened something tapping the door. She opened it but there was nothing. It knocked again. She opened it. He was there. She held him tight, kissed him. They came in. He took her hand and looking in her eyes, said: I am glad War is gone, I love you. She smiled and they were to bed. At morning he was not there. Late she received a letter telling her husband has died. She cried, when she looked into the mirror he was there. She realizes he’ll never let her alone.
Unforgettable dinner
He was smiling at her. “A date with the most handsome guy in the college. I’m so nervous! I feel like screaming!”, she said to herself. The guy was so romantic, he had prepared them shrimps for dinner. There was also champagne and chocolate cake for dessert. Suddenly, he kindly said: “I can’t wait anymore! I’m gonna kiss your lips now!” and when she kissed him for the first time, she felt butterflies in her belly and she thought: “maybe it wasn’t a good idea to eat those beans at lunch!” She realized that her son was shouting “I wanna see the butterflies mom!”.
