The Comedian


I met Rick through a mutual friend that went to college with him. I was 17. He was my first kiss. When it happened, I begged him and his friends to stop. He just smiled at me and said, "Don't worry, it'll be over before you know it."

I met Jack on an online dating site. I was 19. He sent me a message and asked to meet at the local coffee shop and we hit it off. He was sweet. He used to run his thumb over my lips before he kissed me and tell me I was beautiful. Then he told me he loved me. A few months later, he told me that his wife was pregnant and we couldn't go on. I cried, pleaded for for answers.

He told me, "I never said you were the only one."

I met James at a bar. I was 21. I had a bad night at work and he bought me a few drinks. He even offered to drive me home after I had one too many. I gave him directions and I told him when he missed the turn. I told him he was making a mistake. He told me,

"You're not going home tonight, sweetie."

I found James at the bar. I had another bad night at work. I bought him a few drinks and offered him a ride home. He gave me directions and he told me when I missed the turn. He told me I was making a mistake.

I told him, "You're not going home tonight, sweetie."

I found Jack on an online dating site. No pictures of his wife or daughter. I made a new account and he asked me to meet him at the local coffee shop. He waited in that shop for about an hour before he made it back to the parking lot. We caught up at my place. I asked him how things were with his wife, I showed him the wedding ring I found in his back pocket. I ran my thumb over his lips. He cried, pleaded for answers. I'll never forget his face when his eyes got used to the lighting and he saw James chained in the corner, dick chopped off and thrown across the floor.


I told him, "I never said you were the only one."

I found Rick at his home. Nice apartment, definite bachelor pad. Nice view of the city. Big bed, probably expensive, helps put you into a nice deep sleep. We caught up back at my place.

Reminisced about those good college days. He almost untied himself, but I prepared well enough for that. He looked at the James. He looked at Jack. He looked at the cleaver in my hand. He begged me to stop.

I just smiled at him and said, "Don't worry, it'll be over before you know it."

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've Learned...
