Jessica




My soul mate left me today. All that’s left of him now, is pairs of sock that probably fell out of his suitcase, and a note labelled “Read Me” that I found on the kitchen counter.

I picked it up and started to read.

I just can’t take it anymore. Jess, you know I love you, and I always will, but over the last few months things have gotten bad for me. Yes, it’s her. She’s following me again and I’m scared that if she found you she’d kill you. I’m sorry, I wish I could go into more detail, but you’ll be home in a few minutes, and I don’t want to have to tell you any of this to your face. It would destroy me to see you cry. 
– David.

Suddenly the front door creaked open. Instinctively, I grabbed a knife off of the knife rack and ran into the pantry.

“Hello?” Called a woman from the entrance way.

I didn’t answer. Instead, I cracked the pantry door open just enough to see the note on the counter.

“Anyone in here?” She yelled, walking closer to the kitchen. “I’m not going to hurt you.” She stepped into the kitchen. There was a small Swiss army knife in her hand.

She picked up the note and started to read. Within seconds she started crying hysterically. The woman fell to her knees and dropped the knife.

I ignored every logical though in my brain, kicked the door open and thrust the knife into her stomach.

“Welcome home Jessica” I said, twisting the knife with a bright smile on my face.

A Wish Come True (A Short Story)

I woke up with a start when I found myself in a very unfamiliar place. The bed I was lying on was grand—an English-quilting blanket and 2 soft pillows with flowery laces. The whole place was fit for a king! Suddenly the door opened and there stood my dream prince: Katsuya Kimura! I gasped in astonishment for he was actually a cartoon character. I did not know that he really exist. “Wake up, dear,” he said and pulled off the blanket and handed it to a woman who looked like the maid. “You will be late for work.” “Work?” I asked. “Yes! Work! Have you forgotten your own comic workhouse, baby dear?” Comic workhouse?! I…I have became a cartoonist? That was my wildest dreams! Being a cartoonist! I undressed and changed into my beige T-shirt and black trousers at once and hurriedly finished my breakfast. Katsuya drove me to the workhouse. My, my, was it big! I’ve never seen a bigger place than this! Katsuya kissed me and said, “See you at four, OK, baby?” I blushed scarlet. I always wan

Hans and Hilda

Once upon a time there was an old miller who had two children who were twins. The boy-twin was named Hans, and he was very greedy. The girl-twin was named Hilda, and she was very lazy. Hans and Hilda had no mother, because she died whilst giving birth to their third sibling, named Engel, who had been sent away to live wtih the gypsies. Hans and Hilda were never allowed out of the mill, even when the miller went away to the market. One day, Hans was especially greedy and Hilda was especially lazy, and the old miller wept with anger as he locked them in the cellar, to teach them to be good. "Let us try to escape and live with the gypsies," said Hans, and Hilda agreed. While they were looking for a way out, a Big Brown Rat came out from behind the log pile. "I will help you escape and show you the way to the gypsies' campl," said the Big Brown Rat, "if you bring me all your father's grain." So Hans and Hilda waited until their father let them out,

I Was A Lab Assistant of Sorts (Part 3)

Hey everyone. I know it's been a minute, but I figured I would bring you up to speed on everything that happened. So, needless to say, I got out, but the story of how it happened was wild. So there we were, me and the little potato dude, just waiting for the security dude to call us back when the little guy got chatty again. “Do you think he can get us out?” he asked, not seeming sure. “I mean, if anyone can get us out it would be him, right?” “What do you base this on?” I had to think about that for a minute before answering, “Well, he's security. It's their job to protect people, right? If anyone should be able to get us out, it should be them.” It was the little dude's turn to think, something he did by slowly breathing in and out as his body puffed up and then shrank again. “I will have to trust in your experience on this matter. The only thing I know about security is that they give people tickets
