Please Don't Go


I saw you running off with his friends
You were going to some sort of big event
I suddenly worry for you
I told whoever I was with to stay behind
As I chased after you
I suddenly found myself
Holding a torchlight like Alan Wake
And I had to shine it everywhere
The light guided me to where I have to go
I shouted your name "BUN! BUN!"
Like my life depends on it.
But you did not respond
As I ran, I ended up
Running into some sort of Asian funeral procession
I couldn't tell what sort of Asian was this
And I couldn't care less
I just weave around them and continued my way
They all look so realistic, not dream-like
I knew somehow that this is a dream
But everything looked so real
I continued to run about shouting your name
Trying to look for you
I finally ended up at a procession
that looked like it came from your culture
Then I could feel myself waking up
I could feel my surroundings
And the feel of the bed and the pillow below my head
And the blanket around my body
But I didn't want to wake up
I wanted to find you
I willed myself to go back to sleep
To return to this world
And for a brief moment I succeeded
I approached this man
Who is the head of the procession
And asked him if he saw you
But he asked me if I was the girl
Who was adopted by your family
And asked if I came from the other world
As if he knew I came from the waking world!
How weird is that?
Again, I felt myself slipping
Slipping back to the waking world
I willed myself to stay in the dream
For another few more minutes
Suddenly I was approached by your dad
And he was telling me that he adopted me
So that I can marry Adan
And become the village idiot's bride
That I should give up fantasizing on you
But I don't want to marry a village idiot!
I wanted to marry you!
I wanted to find you!
I wanted to see you
To touch you
To feel you
To kiss you
To hold you and never let go...

But I woke up
Empty and alone
On a cold and lonely bed
And I cried...

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
