Josie grabbed her books and walked out of Intro to Psychology. She noticed all of the smiling, talking, faces and a wave of disappointment washed over her when she realized that none of them were smiling at, or talking to her. She had been at Connor State for four weeks, and she hadn't made any friends. It seemed like the people at Connor were very different...
This is an account of what went down in real life between myself and my mother in law about 4 months ago. Enjoy and please feel free to comment on the story – this is my first post, there will be more to follow as well as additional encounters. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The drive up was pleasant; small talk was made about the country and its po...
The drive into town is a beautiful bouquet of fall colors in the trees along the road. As you ride with the window down, the wind blowing through your hair, you can't remember the last time you took the time to notice nature's wondrous splendor and enjoyed yourself like this. You love to drive his car, the quick 5-speed that handles like a sports car. Of cou...
Short note to the readers: This is a work of pure fiction (for those who may take this way too seriously) and is merely a modern work of fantasy playing off much older ones had by females across history. If you enjoy it feel free to comment. When Christie awoke she had no idea where she was. Her head was groggy, and as her eyes cracked open slowly, she rea...
I felt nervous. I had spent time wondering if the e-mail I had received that morning was real or not. It said to meet with Professor G today at five in his room. The e-mail read that it had been sent from the professor's e-mail address. So, it couldn't be fake. The last time I looked I had had an A in Creative writing. I didn't think it could be about my g...
Chapter 3: Lacie Owned Lacie stepped through the metal door, closing her eyes and tilting her head back, basking in the burgeoning feeling that she felt growing in her chest. She felt a new sensation of warmth in the growing feeling of hope that her life might just end up being a happy one. Lacie slowly exhaled, opening her eyes to greet the new life before...
TUESDAY, APRIL 17, 2007. It was late by the time we'd finished the Polish lorry and the driver, in halting English, asked if he could park up overnight. Well I certainly didn't want to leave him on the premises and eventually managed to convey to the guy that he needed to drive out onto the Industrial Estate where overnight parking is common place. It was a...
Morning had faded to early afternoon by the time Mandy crept into the shower. When she emerged, she found William was gone and Beth had been tied to the kitchen table. Rebekka was feeding her grapes and tormenting the bound woman with her fingers. Jerome was sipping tea, watching the tableau. Her own lover, Sandra, stumbled with bleary eyes out of the bedr...
The, "next time," came sooner than I anticipated. Ten days later, Elle called at work again, my receptionist now recognizing the school phone number by sight, she and Elle greeting each other by first name. She was calling to inform me that she was taking a personal day, a doctors appointment the excuse, because she had, "..., something important to tell y...
Small note, I have realized that the last name of the lead character has changed a few times throughout the chapters. To correct this error and to keep things consistent, Cynthia's last name from here on out will be what it was originally stated; Miss Watts. Also, I would like to apologize for the long delay for this part to the story; I just have not been a...
