“Withdraw” by Aneka Williams

Submitted to Contest #53

“Get out of my suitcase,” I ordered, crossing my arms and trying to appear mad to get my point across. My adopted 10-year-old sister, Elsie, laid in the fetal position inside my large brown suitcase. Her hair was spread out under her and she was wearing a pink summer dress. At some point during breakfast she had disappeared and this was the last place I expected to find her.  “Daniel, I wa...

“Rush Hour” by Aneka Williams

Submitted to Contest #48

Natasha screamed as she looked down to her doom, hanging off the side of the rollercoaster at the amusement park, holding on for dear life. The ride was at least sixty-feet off the ground and unfortunately one of the rails had detached as the cart came barreling through. Fifteen other passengers were also holding on as she was but how long could they keep this up? As she focused back to herself, her hand started to slip. Her palms were sweaty and her hand couldn’t get a grip.“No, no,” She frantically cried.

“EvoWatch” by Aneka Williams

Submitted to Contest #48

Kaleb watched with interest as his friend, Daniel, swung across the balustrade on his graffiti designed skateboard. It skidded on the iron, causing enough friction to build between the wheels, and jumped off in a frontside one-eighty. Daniel continued to slowly stroll around after that with a cocky grin on his face.“Let’s see you top that,” Daniel challenged.Kaleb had been skating for three years, Daniel only having a year under his belt. Kaleb didn’t need to tell him he could top it and he figu...

“I Don't See, What I See” by Aneka Williams

Submitted to Contest #45

I could hear her. Again.She was screaming as per usual, followed by muffled pleads for mercy and faint sobbing. I knew she was getting another ‘lesson’. Her husband, Matthew, was my best friend but I found it hard to stop him from doing what he saw fit. His ideals were illogical and downright narcissistic but at the end of the day, his decisions were his. I had always been taught not to interfere in other people's business and I tried to restrain myself from getting involved but h...

“What I Thought I Knew” by Aneka Williams

Submitted to Contest #44

“Will you marry me, Danielle?”Edward’s voice came from behind me and I slowly turned around to see him awkwardly bent on one knee and his hands outstretched with a large silver ring neatly stacked in a tiny box. I must have started crying. Or laughing. His happy expression shifted to one of uncertainty and I realized I must have answered the question wrong.“Yes,” I clarified, “Yes, I’ll marry you”His courage surfaced again. He jumped to his feet and tenderly pushed the ring onto my ind...

“The Pink-Eyed Wonder” by Aneka Williams

Submitted to Contest #44

“One of my eyes is actually a pale pink”My step-sister, Kayden, stared at me with a quizzical expression and I instantly knew she was having a hard time trying to process what I just said."You said you wanted us to be closer as siblings so I decided to tell you my secret" I explained.She sat up from her current position on the living room couch and gave me her full attention. We were still getting used to each other, even one year after my father married her mom, and she wanted us to b...
