Sea of Roses (Part 3)

Author's Note: This is not related to the prompt, but I really wanted to post it, so enjoy! I wake up at dawn, the sky shade of crimson. I stretch and grab an apple from my bag. As I open the flap of the tent, I see that Zayn and Andre are still asleep. I want to wake them up, but I decide against it. As much as I want to get going, I don’t want two cranky idiots to deal with. It’s cold, so I go back into my tent and wrap myself in my royal purple blanket. Soon enough, I doze off again. I wake up to a sunny sky. I’ve overslept. I no...

Somewhere behind a screen, someone is deciding what choices I make every day. Simple things, like what type of bread I’ll buy from the market, or what clothes I wear. It’s supposed to keep us in line, my mother tells me. I guess it does. But there will always be rebels. There will always be crime. The government can’t do anything to stop that. I’ve heard stories about a rebel family who raised their children outside the border, without all the laws and restrictions closing in on them. These children were free of the algorithm. The pol...

Sea of Roses (Part 2)

“Well if you would stop snatching the map, maybe we’d get somewhere!” “You don’t even know how to read a map, you bonehead!” “Right, as if you can!” “I’m the one who got us to the town square! You can’t find your way around your own city, what are you going to do when we travel to other districts?” I listen to Zayn and Andre’s childish bickering. It amuses me, but it’s also annoying. I realize we’re not getting anywhere unless I butt in. I sigh and push the two of them apart. “Both of you idiots are wrong. Just shut up and li...

“Do you understand your task?” the king asked. I bottled up my fear and bowed my head solemnly. The king nodded, his features relaxing. Even though I had worked closely with him for almost two years, he was still intimidating. Perhaps it had something to do with his cold, blue-gray eyes or his demeaning gaze. Maybe it was how he spoke slowly and softly, making one feel like a child who had broken his mother’s favorite vase. I’m told he wasn’t always like this. He once had a queen and a young son who would have been about my age had he survi...

Note: This is kind of like a prequel to my story, "A Risk Worth Taking" except you're supposed to read it after. Sooooooo it's a sequel but a prequel...that's confusing. Anyway, the point is you should read "A Risk Worth Taking" before this.“Mummy! The TV turned off!” Lilianne yelled.“I know darling. Come here.” Elena spoke softly. Lilly bounded down the stairs, eager to know the reason for the power outage.“I want to show you something.” Elena Blackwell said, leading her daughter outside. Mrs. Blackwell lay out a picnic blanket and motioned...

A Risk Worth Taking

The black limousine pulled out of the spacious driveway, turning on to Sunstone Avenue. Inside were four people: The driver, Mr. Blackwell, and his wife and daughter. From the outside, they were a rich and happy family. But in truth, there was no love between them. Mr. Blackwell might have been incredibly rich, but as the saying goes, “Money can’t buy happiness.” The family was currently headed to a big party for Olivea Madden’s graduation. The Maddens had been family friends of the Blackwells for years. They had money as well, because as Mr...

“Okay, just count back down from 20.” the doctors told me. My vision had started to blur. I started counting back, and before I even reached 13, I was out like a light. This was a life or death situation. One wrong move and I’d be dead. My family waited outside anxiously, trying to see through the tiny glass panel on the door. You’re probably wondering what happened to me. Well, a while ago, I got into a major car accident and it messed with my brain. I’m not sure exactly what happened to me, but it wasn’t good. It was one of those situatio...

“It’s three in the morning. Why are you up?” my mother said in a tired voice.“I’ve got homework! If you’d helped me when I asked you to, maybe I’d be sleeping right now!” I shot back. I know, it’s wrong to speak to my mother like that. But she’s been so distant lately. I guess I can’t blame her. A few months ago, my parents got a divorce, and my mom hasn’t been the same since then. My dad hasn’t even called to see how I’m doing. He’s probably living in some fancy apartment somewhere in New York, partying every day. But that’s not the on...

“I’m so sorry, your father passed away a few minutes ago,” I say. Immediately, the woman breaks down in sobs. I sigh, my face devoid of any emotion. I’ve done this way too many times. Enough that my own mother’s passing did not stir me at all. It’s unfortunate. Just imagine going to your mother’s funeral and not feeling anything. Staring with a blank face into the coffin of the person who raised you. Sometimes I wish I’d have gotten tagged as a teacher, or engineer, or even just a regular doctor. But no, I am a nurse. A nurse whose job is to...
