SLAM! The door closes with a crash as I awake from my slumber. As I crawl out of bed and start walking to the door, I hear an unfamiliar noise coming from the kitchen that sounds like sobbing mixed with mumbled curse words mixed under someone’s breath. Who could this be? Surely, not my father! I had never heard my father cry before in all my life and to say such harsh words! Daddy never curses unless something unimaginable happens. What is going on? I wonder. I decided that I had to go take a…
Isolated in a crater, surrounded by deep green mountains, sat Huoron, a squat little town of just over two thousand. On the outskirts lie quaint little cottages with outhouses that were empty now, only to be filled in the summer when people try to escape the ball and chain of modern life. The pure, untainted green of the forest seemed to draw less and less people as the attraction of nature became less and less desirable. As you look further in, the cottage scene is corrupted with dotted…
Prologue: "Hey sweetheart, can you open your eyes for me, please?" His deep, husky voice asked. Quickly remembering my warning, I shook my head, making his arms tighten around my body. His arms got tighter and tighter around my waist. When it became too much, I let out a squeal. Even though I was in a lot of pain, I still kept my eyes shut for dear life. I couldn’t—No, I wouldn’t open my eyes for this monster of a being. I would either burn or drawn to death than give into him. "Playing…
“Johnny . . .” I begged, slamming one fist against the wall. “Oh, Johnny, don't die, please don't die . . .” All I knew to do was run, run far away. Johnny is dead, Johnny is dead! He can't be dead! He was my life, my reason for living. All of the greasers knew this. Now that he is gone, what do I do. What is my point in life. There is nothing for me to do, to help, not since Johnny is gone. I have to point in living! All of these thoughts rushed through my head. I didn't know whether I was…
Do you think that when you got to know me you bit off more than you can chew? When everything fell apart did you go back to the drawing board? Should I stick around to see if I am a challenge too big for you? Or should I leave on my own accord? They say actions speak louder than words, but your actions to back up your words occur once in a blue moon, Your affection towards me is definitely absurd, Yet you always know how to make me swoon, I thought our love was a blessing in disguise, but you…
Inside the camp are sorrow and distress, outside, lays… something. The Concentration camp took me, my mother, and my older brother, Marvin into its terrible boundaries. Day after day, not enough food, at least 10 more lifeless. I long to depart but instead, it grips tightly onto me saying, “Withdraw and a severe chastisement, remain and undergo day after day, in the camp.” If I leave and fail to escape, it will be the demise of me. I can’t bear to think about Marvin and mother, the…
Finally I’ve said goodbay to Josie! I am glad, that I have such as nice friend as Josephine, however even she can not understand my position right now, as she used to know me as unconcerned and positive person, but it is not real me, at least not any more. Probably the worst thing, which I keep stressing out more than failed Maths competition is HSC exam. Overtime I do something wrong, I will pay it for weeks and this thought do not give me any opportunity to be myself and live a happy life.…
The summer breeze brushed past my sundress as I walked down the lane. My over-sized brown boots dragging on the ground. The vibrant sunlight kissing my face with its glory as it peeks through the leafy branches of each tree overhead. As I pass friendly faces down the street my smile starts to widen. The laughter and neighborly conversation that surrounds me as I stride further along the lane fills me with joy and happiness. The sights and sounds that penetrate the atmosphere around me are only…
Kageyama watched through blurred vision as a pair of gloved hands picked him up. He could barely register what was happening, but he could hear himself wailing loudly and other voices speaking in a language he had yet to understand. The gloved hands cradled him, and suddenly he was swaddled within a warm cloth. His eyes closed, finding the blaring white lights to be too much for his pupils. Kageyama could feel himself being moved. He could feel apprehension in the air as lights flashed over him.…
Lennie entered the barn to play with the puppy that was going to be his to tend. The barn full of hay, hay in every place of the barn. The sun coming in from the windows. You could see the dust from the sun light. It was quiet but you could hear the noises that puppies make when they want to be fed. Lennie loved soft things and those puppies were soft. Lennie was a nice guy, if he hurt anything it sure was an accident. Lennie also didn't know his own strength. He was a big guy but a little…
