“Oh brother what have I done to yow?” by Alvin Fernandes

“I wanna kill myself!” Patrick jokingly shouted after he was obnoxious with the long, tedious science homework presented to him after the last period of school. To his reply, his 3 minutes older twin brother ironically mentioned if he was going to kill him as for sure they didn’t look as identical as you’d suppose a regular twin would look. Patrick, built like a man-mountain with unshorn twisted hair almost forming curls...

“Stockholm Syndrome ” by Alvin Fernandes

Submitted to Contest #103

Two hours before sunset, I stood still waiting under the colorful building, rainbow - like, chewing gum and grasping on my two and a half inch long cigarette.

Submitted to Contest #96

2018Yes, I was sitting at the corner of the room, the guest room filled with a group of individuals partying. I could literally feel the Goosebumps on my hand being alone and nobody to talk to. My lips were held tight with a grin just to make myself look like I’m having a good time. If you’re wondering what I was doing at this party, let me make this clear.
