Bright

I wake up abruptly sitting up, Im sweaty and thirsty. The lights are bright and piercing, they burn into my eyes. My head hurts, and everything is a bright white, and it burns my eyes. I cover my eyes trying to stop the burning before I'm interrupted by some woman "Sir? Are you alright?"I look up at her, dazed and confused. "Its too bright" As I speak, my voice sounds gravely, and unfamiliar, Not like my voice that I remember."Oh sorry about that sir" She turns the lights to dim, the burning faded. Slow as it was, it was definitely fading. I...

Kidnapped

The room is unfamiliar. I don't know how I got here. My last memory that I know is factual is that I was walking down the street walking home. I remember someone yelling and running as fast as I possibly could. Then I remember feeling a sharp pain in my head, and now I'm here, confused, dazed, and unsure of what to do. I look around, the room is void of furniture, and the floor is concrete. There are no windows and I see a set of stairs to my right. I felt something rough and tight around my right wrist. It's a rope, and I'm tied to a sturdy...

lies

As I lay in bed scrolling through youtube shorts, I get a text from an unknown number. So I read the message. "Hey! It's Alison! Is this Julian?" I feel a wave of confusion and concern, Who is Alison, how do they know my name and number? I respond "Who's asking?" Almost immediately they respond "Me silly! Alison. So is this Julian?" "How did you get this number?""You told it to me remember?" I was confused."I'm sorry, when the hell did that happen?""this morning at the cafe.""What? I haven't left my house today, cuz, its like noon.""Isn't th...

storm

The wind howled, thunder striking everywhere, the trees shaking violently. I was stuck in a field in a storm, lost and confused. angry and sad, I wanted to go home. The only problem with that is I don't know what I can call home anymore, and even when I am home, it doesn't feel like home anymore. The rain pelted my body harshly, slapping against me in cold punches. The wind howled, moving fast, shaking the trees violently, chilling me to the bone. Part of me wanted to just stand here and let whatever happened happen. I don't care what happen...

the wind

I wake up like any other day, the wind howling at me as always. I look outside, heavy rain. "Well, that's better than hail." I say with a sigh. I get out of bed and check the time, [7:27 A.M.] nice and early. I swiftly make my bed, nicely and neatly, before leaving my room. I walk to the kitchen, hearing the occasional rattling from the gutter caused by the intense wind. I stand there looking out the window, sleep still lingering slightly, making my brain foggy. I zone out before shaking my head softly, snapping myself out of it. I walk to t...

this rotten and infected world

As I walk into the abandoned cafe, I notice just how barren it is. No one to be seen, I walk over to the dusty chair, setting my backpack down next to me. I sit on the chair, taking a rest from all of the horrible things that I've seen recently. For all I know, this infection has killed everyone, and I could be the last not mutated murderous person left, I look around this place, and I notice the display screen TV is shattered, I see a body over the counter with a hole in its head, half-rotted. I see a pistol next to the body, along with a p...

cup a tea for the soul

I wake up, my covers and hair a mess. I groan, trying to shake the tired away. I look at the time, 6:24 am. I huff in annoyance wondering why I woke up so early. As I lay there for a while trying to find the energy to get up, the mental want to not just lay in bed all day doing nothing. After around an hour I finally forced myself to get up. As I get up, I notice just how messy my hair is, but frankly, I don't care. I walk out of my room, not bothering to make my bed, and I walk into the kitchen. I look at my stacks of various teas and wonde...
