In My Bed

I had just gotten back from school when my world began to crumble around me. It was a Friday, so like any other kid who had just suffered through an entire week of excruciating labor, I was very excited to kick back and relax. Eagerly I dropped my crimson backpack to the floor, letting it fall with a loud thud that must have echoed through the entire house. Still in my school uniform, I plop onto my bed and pull out my phone. Maybe I’ll watch another episode of Lost, I think to myself, unaware that my life would change forever in the coming hours. You see, it was on this day, Friday, October 17th 2014, that one of my cats, Brenna, died. I knew this cat for my entire life. My parents had bought her, along with her twin brother, all the way…

Perceval moved to chase after her, but suddenly realized he wore next to nothing, and unless he wanted to be tackled by the castle guard and tossed into the dungeons for indecency, he needed to dress. He raced around the room frantically, collecting his things all while shouting at Elora. The woman sat in bed, pouting, her arms crossed over her naked bosom. “Get the fuck out of my bed, will you?” bellowed Perceval, nearly apoplectic with rage, as he yanked up his trousers and slipped his feet…

and celestial miracles simply a synthetic artistry created by man to explain a much greater enigma? Answered prayers set into angelic action; that is where the Doubting Thomas came into play. Yes, of course I believed in God, Jesus, and angels; but did they genuinely intervene in the everyday lives of every believer created in his image? The Doubting Thomas in me needed to face a substantive encounter before I could rid of any agnosticism. Indeed, such an encounter undeniably focused my dubious…

Narrative I’m sitting in my office in my pajamas as I get a phone call on my cell phone. I had just gotten a new one so the contact didn’t pop up. Who might this be? I think to myself. I click on the answer button. I began to speak, “Hello it’s Bryland. Who is this?” “This is the school. Bailey passed out during class, we need you down here immediately!” The lady says sounding very freaked out. “I’ll be there as soon as possible!” I pulled my long black hair out of a bun while running up the…

"I just don 't love you anymore." He wouldn 't look into my eyes, I 'm not sure he has the whole time I 've been here. "What do you mean? You can 't just stop loving me!" I let out a nervous laugh, my hands were starting to shake and I could feel the tears in my eyes. "You can 't just throw three years away!" I screamed, anger taking over me. "Clara, things change! I 'm sorry but I just can 't anymore!" He yelled back at me, finally looking up at me as tears swam in my eyes and ran down my…

After we left the emergency room we went home, leaving my mother and Amy behind to help my Papa Jack as they waited until late that night for a real hospital room to open up. Finally one opened up around 9 o’clock that night. The next day they spent the day at the hospital with Nani and Papa Jack, meeting with certain people that wanted to see her and getting ready to move her back home. Meanwhile, me and my sister were forced to return to school the next day. Acting as though everything is fine…

Saying by to Momma Skitles and Daddy Spree, I walked into my new sanitized room. After looking around, I decided to take the bottom of the bunk bed in the far corner. “Better to have one close to the ground and near the closet.” I started making my bed when I got another sudden hunger pang. I doubled over as the intensity of my hunger overtook me. I reached, with trembling hands, into the extra suitcase. Withdrawing a book, I took out my favorite straw. I quickly ripped into the book, not…

don’t keep a record of it. What is said during pillow talk is their business—it’s no different from lawyer client privilege.” “I doubt that. Do any of your clients work for Donovan Kingsley?” “I do believe we’ve catered to a few of his employees. If my memory serves me right, there a particular young man who courted three of my girls from time to time.” Court? Hunter fought the urge to laugh, and smirked instead. “I’d like to have a word with them, if you don’t mind.” “Sure. Follow me. You have…

I woke up in the corner of my room where I had made a small bed on the floor last night, for the second time. I remembered the reason why I slept on the floor and looked over towards my bed to see the boy still sleeping. I got up and changed his bandages and moved his stuff and the towels from in the washer to the dryer. After I finished putting everything into the dryer and starting it, I went back into my room to grab my writing assignment that was assigned in class yesterday and I went…
