Cold Heart

David Abu Bonsrah

‘’The camera is set," he motioned, "You begin in 3,2,1, and action..." ‘’Good morning to you all. I’m Nora Osman reporting live from the town-square chapel in Sowutuom. I’ll be reporting every little detail from the grand wedding of the member of parliament till the constituency of Anyaa Sowutuom is crowned with a new member of parliament or do we maintain the old one? Only time will tell. No information is going to be left hidden. Hash-tag, the race to the parliamentary position,’’ she positioned herself in such a way that she was partially...

Ryley Scott

David Abu Bonsrah

He was thrilled that she had opened the door to at least him. He'd been there with several others on countless occasions and left fruitless but today there was hope although all he could see was the wrinkled face of the old lady through the little space of the door she had opened. "If you're here because of Ryley, you might as well leave, Detective. There's nothing you're going to get out of me," she began frankly and he sighed heavily putting his hands to his lips. "In what way should I explain the situation to you, Mrs. Quenin? A doctor wa...

Bernice's ride through the city was amazing. She hadn’t planned this but there was one particular place she wanted to visit. Her heart pushed her to that part of the city where she once lived. Her body resisted the temptation to go to that particular location but her mind was there already. The scenes she’d tried had to forget was going to come back one way or the other but she took the risk. She turned a junction to the mansion she once lived in and noticed how developed that part of the city had beco...

The Online Conflict

Submitted to Contest #69

It was purposely a family reunion but for the first time ever as a video chat. It seemed to be the only way to continue the annual, 'Display your food' family holiday tradition. A family tradition that was practised very well in the days of my great-grandfather, Mr Daniels himself, but not any more. Obviously, I was going to display fufu and groundnut soup. A local delicacy in Ghana that mum thought me to prepare several years ago when I was a kid. Travelling to Venezuela and many other delightful experiences didn't make me forget the...

The Smiling Devil 3

My day was ruined after I almost got stabbed but my year was ruined when David accepted Tina's offer to stay at ours. Angel noticed my change in mood unlike the other members of my family. How in the world was I going to tell my husband that the woman he called his mother wasn't the saint he thought she was. We stared blankly at each other when she moved in the next day and the following week her daughter had also joined. She was Yasmine. A young-looking lady and also David's childhood friend. With their presence, I could tell that things wo...

It was Henry's wedding and this day reminded me of my wedding surprise. Henry had fought very hard for his high school sweetheart after resolving the differences between both of them for almost a year. Not until I had helped my brother's future wife, Angel, put on her gown did I notice how far I had come. It had been ten years since Jermaine surprised me on my wedding day and with Angel's astonishing looks, so many things came back to mind.''How did Jermaine escape electrocution?'' this was one of the questions that popped up. The part of my...

Kelvin Aguas rushed into his car wearing only his boxers. His suit, tie, socks, and shoes were in his hands as he raced into his car. He couldn't stand the chance of missing his afternoon flight due to what happened the night before. He went to a strip club with his driver and spent the night there drinking and having fun with the ladies. He just woke at 15 minutes to noon and the flight was scheduled for noon. ''Won't you have breakfast? Oooh! I'm sorry, you missed breakfast but won't you have lunch? Just a bite!'' Nanny Gifty Cruz teased...

Fate

I wasn't in for marriage, yet I was continually dating so many girls. I was clothed in my suit waiting for the girl I had tried to describe to My Dating App. I wanted marriage although I didn't want to show it, my heart was eager for it. Living a simple life with my wife and our children somewhere peaceful wouldn't be something hard to ask for. My past lovers called me the slow type but I called it my technique.''What's she wearing?'' I asked the App as I parked my car. I smiled and checked if everything was alright. My perfume was perfect a...

I gladly stood in front of the mirror having a look at the bride I was about to be. David kept calling and my little brother Henry just didn't seem to stop disturbing me. Amidst all of this was Aunty Laura, the human who didn't seem to fit on earth, giving me archaic methods of putting on my own gown. Finally, with the help of Aunty Laura, she covered my face with the long veil she had bought all the way from the east for my wedding to David. Dad cried as he watched me walk to him in my wedding gown. I was glowing white and just couldn't thi...
