PART ONE Nathan did not like going out with his dad. Did not like it. He was almost six feet at 18 years old, and his dad was only about 5’10, but his father gave him constant directions on how to interact as if Nathan were 6 years old. Dad was a bit of an asshole. Maybe Nathan was autistic, or maybe he just never went outside unless forced to do so by some obligation that involved his parents (usually dad) going through the motions of being great parents trying to raise a star athlete, or for their own photo ops. Nath...

A man and a waitress

Edward S.

A fat teardrop splashed against the thick, impenetrable lamination of the bistro's menu. Tears of sorrow, tears of strength, but a breathy exhale semi-laugh at the effectiveness of the menus waterproofing were all the man could muster at his very current situation. His handsome 5 o'clock shadow engulfed his soft featured, nice-looking face. His white semi-trench coat looked almost like a tunic to the pretty souled, voluptuous waitress who was staring more than she usually would as she walked over, still attempting to be as cagey and knowing ...

Cindy

Edward S.

Cindy was ready to tiptoe loudly through her old stomping grounds. The mall where some of her warmer early life memories had been turned long-term. The ages of 9-16 years old are said by some older people to “not matter,” but they are lying their ass off, because what you do at that age sticks with you more tightly in many ways than your 20-45 highlights compilation. It’s the firsts that make it for the long haul, for better or worse. Being into her 40s and feeling it having been diagnosed with something nasty a while back, Cindy had experie...

Devin the legend, a pink bike and some girls.

Edward S.

It was 4:30 pm when Frankie walked in. Young aged people don't make noise to wake you up intentionally, or do much intentionally, but they still make a lot of noise and do much anyways. He plopped down on my non-memory foam "too young to care" worn out spring mattress and woke me from my temporary death. "Dude, are you awake? Are you OK my man? I can't believe you're here and alive my hero." Frankie sounded sincere enough, but his voice had a green tint to it. My name is Devin, which I should tell you for purposes of this true story. I looke...

Benny the Beetle Needed a Needle.

Edward S.

Submitted to Contest #43

Benny the Beetle liked to help people. People liked Benny and Benny liked them. Benny helped people because people were friends. Willy the Weasel knew Benny the Beetle because they had played and were friends. Willie the Weasel liked Benny the Beetle and played with him again and again. They did things together like music and dance, and it was dancing that ripped Willy's pants. Willy went silly and jumped into splits, Benny the Beetle had heard the loud RRRIP. "What was that?" Asked Benny, upon hearing the noise."It was my pan...

The Happy Skipper

Edward S.

Submitted to Contest #42

Marci was only fifty-two. Her dark hair was still sexy with curls in a ponytail. She knew her daughter’s boyfriends still looked at her when she walked away, because she was in shape and had a booty; plus she watched porn sometimes and knew that there was a market for her. Still, Marci noticed changes in her face recently. Her skin was still amazing for a woman her age, so that wasn’t the thing. You could not break your mother’s back walking blind-folded across her smooth, yet classically tough face, but her reflection had been bothering her...
