“Do you have sun Tzu’s art of war for sale?” a customer asked Doug at his bookshop. Nobody would have believed that someone with the history he has would be selling books now. “He answered no” to the customer. Someone just came in an hour ago and grabbed the last one. This made him a little concerned as this was the third person who came into the shop and asked for that book. As normally it wouldn’t draw concern but the three men and the guy who bought the book had on the same boots which was weird. Doug had another business he ran downstair...

Have you ever heard of twins sharing everything? What about them sharing each other’s thoughts? This story doesn’t have anything to do with that but it’s nice to wonder about the different possibilities that could happen if it did. Could you imagine if twin females did share a boyfriend and didn’t know about it? That would be hard as twins are known to tell their counterpart everything unless they are male twins as guys are known for talking amongst each other about sharing females.

On this particular day Cliff just so happened to sit at the back of the bus and...

“Being stuck at the workplace during a blizzard is no joke. Many things can occur; your children could go crazy being home alone and go through your things in your room and find your hidden stash of cannabis, they could find your adult toys that you have hidden in your closet in a shoe box, or they could destroy the house trying to get warm. One can only pray they don’t start a fire”. Debra said this to Wendy as if it had happened to her once and she just waited until she finished because they had been drinking for the last hour. The blizzar...

He awoke in a cell, clothes were half torn. His shirt was dirty with mud all over, jeans had holes in the leg areas as if he was attacked by a few dogs. This cell has a small bed with thin sheets and a soft, medium sized blanket. Its walls were thin as he could hear a few other people but he started to wonder where he was and how he got there. He has a watch that is cracked and as the hands started to slowly turn he realized that it was the only way he would be able to know what the time is so he decided he needed a way to keep track of it. ...

Barbara lives in the state of Wisconsin. She lives in a small city of about 4,000 people. Barbara has been in a 5 year relationship with John and had hoped he would have proposed by now. When they first met they were in their sophomore year of college and both were majoring in biology. It’s weird they met because if you knew them before they got together they were not two people who would seemingly meet. John hung around guys who were party goers and Barbara was the life of the party. Many thought Barbara was promisc...

Somewhere in the middle of Idaho lived a boy and his mother. Next door lived his best friend who had a military father. The boy and his mother moved to Idaho from Missouri a few years ago because his mother got a job at one of the best lawyer firms in the Midwest.

Luke was ecstatic that he made a friend so soon but the more he hung out with Jeff he saw he was not who he thought he was. Luke was 16 and he wasn’t a nerd but he wa...
