“Her” by Afifah MS

“Madam, please, don’t do it. Please don’t kill me!” Hua Xin just looked at the scenario in front of him and his colleague. The man is kneeling on the ground while a woman with her face covered with a weird outfit just holding an unfamiliar weapon to his stomach. “You know what sir, this weapon from my world is mainly used for stabbing. With only a stab, the victim will bleed until death comes to him or her. So, do you want to become its next victim?” Hua Xin is surprised. This is the first time he met a person from another world except...

“Dream” by Afifah MS

“Oh no, where am I?” He knows that he is in his dream right now but he is totally lost right now. He is in a huge room with a lot of chairs and some sort of counters? The design of the room is unfamiliar to him. It is like it comes from another place, unlike his own. There are some people in the area but it seems like nobody is waiting for services. Only some personnel are doing their job at a leisure pace behind the counters and there are two guards at the door. A sudden blaring sound screeching his ears and flashes of orange hurting hi...

The story is the continuation of the "New Journey".The general station is full of people, which is quite shocking because today is the third day of Syawal. It seems that the Aidilfitri celebration is still going strong. She has booked a car from the e-hailing app after leaving the train platform around 20 minutes ago. From the app, the car should arrive anytime from now.Sincerely, she is really nervous right now. She does not know what to expect with today's open house. It has already been ten years since the last time she stepped into this ...

“Adam, do we still have candles anywhere around the house? It is really dark here. Can you search for them? I will search for my torchlight too. I will wait in the living room. Be careful. Is it okay for you?” Her husband just nodded and strolling to the kitchen gracefully. The audacity of that human cat. His night vision is a blessing tonight. His curse is a blessing tonight. She found her torchlight and thankfully, two mini fans inside the clothes drawer. She switched on the torchlight and watching the outside surrounding via their bedro...

“Secret” by Afifah MS

“Yes, I will be in the perpustakaan (library) soon, Tok. I just want to make sure that Aisyah has slept for the night. I will be on my way now. I shall arrive just in time for the meeting if nothing happens.” She heard her mother ended the call. She is not fully sleeping yet, that is why she woke up when hearing her mother talking to someone. Who is Tok? Do Ibu’s (mother) grandparents are still alive? If they are, she never meets them. She heard her room’s door opened and closed, signalling her mother had left. She quickly opened her ey...

“New Journey” by Afifah MS

“I’m sorry, Miss! Are you hurt?” The young lady shakes her head, smiling politely. “It’s okay, sir. There are so many people today. It is hard to move around.” That guy’s pale face brightens again. He said his apology one more time and start moving again, searching for his seat. She just sends him away with her two eyes. Chaotic. A word to describe this train. There are so many people taking this trip due to a public holiday next week. Furthermore, because the break is due to a main religious festival, a lot of people opt to take extra lea...
