I watch the lady place the neatly folded napkin above our plates as the finishing touch for this dinner date. I heaved a deep sigh of contentment as I look how perfect this day could be... The excitement I am feeling as if the 68 years old me is back on the day I first met my first love. I met her back when I was 16 - the age when we are all reckless, ambitious, and happy-go-lucky. I was on my tattered denim jeans matched with my leather jacket carrying my guitar as I walk towards the place where I usually met my band members. I am not bragg...

"I know that you will be lonely if I don't talk to you anymore," Greg said and crouch down to look at the teenage boy who is currently sitting in his hospital bed. He heaved a deep sigh before looking back at him. He roams his eyes around him as he saw the fresh wounds and purple bruises around his face and hands. His feet are both tattered with cuts and scratches. Since when did the existence of this boy become so important to him? He doesn't quite remember but he remembers the first time he met him running on the streets with bruises and c...

I roam around my neighborhood when I was alive. Yes, I am indeed a dead person and I am currently roaming as an unseen entity in this world called a ghost. I actually don't remember anything about how I died and most of my memories when I was alive are all blurry and hazy. I don't know... I just suddenly woke up with a scary guy wearing an all-black outfit with a gun dangling on his belt. He introduces himself as Diether, The grim reaper. I thought grim reapers are some fairy of death or somethin' who looks like a creepy skeleton carrying ...

Trigger warning: rape, domestic violence The kids and I are currently picking apples in the market. It was all red and looks tasty making us get excited over Halloween. We are also picking some materials to make their Halloween costumes for tomorrow. "Ms. Maria!!" The kids screamed as they run towards me with their apples and costumes for tomorrow's Halloween. "Getting excited aren't we?" I said and smile at them. "Yes, Ms. Maria. We are very excited for tomorrow's Halloween." Rafael said. "Yes, Ms. Maria! We hope we'll have more cand...
Trigger warning: domestic violence By the time I stepped outside, the leaves were on fire creating a warm feeling inside my chest contrasting the cold blowing wind. "Welcome Autumn!" I exclaimed and extended my arms as if I am a bird ready to fly. I start to walk as I notice the neighboring kids preparing for Halloween. Their laughs and the scent of the autumn leaves flowing on the air as the winds blow fills my heart. Does that sound corny? Well...that's me...and my reason why girls don't like me. Laughs. I am Jimmy Walker...32 years...

So...I am basically a zombie. My body is rotting, I can't feel pain and other sensation either, my heart stopped and my head keeps rolling on the floor every time I turn it around. But I must say I am STILL not a zombie. As to why here is my story. It all started in the year 2050 when Science was taking over the whole world. Flying cars were invented, food turns into pills, houses were portable, and gadgets and other daily necessities can be stored in just a whip of a finger. Thinking back 50 years or maybe 100 years back it was impossible...

"We're here! Home Sweet Home" George said with a smile almost reaching both of his ears. We've been debating whether we will buy this house or not. We just got married a few months ago when he suddenly announced that we will be migrating here in Japan. That very news made my jaw drop on the floor but his "good news" does not end there because on that very day he also announced that he already bought a house and a lot and was waiting for its contract to get it signed. It was all so sudden that's why I was against it but in the end, ...
After 14 hours or maybe more than that we finally arrived here in Tokyo, Japan. The center and the heart of this country. If we are out here for a vacation we would be very excited especially Cindy but we are not. First, we came here for village research, meaning...we are not staying here in Tokyo. Second, It's currently 3am here and we can all feel the mother of all headaches pounding our head because of a freakin' Jetlag. Third, we have to catch the earliest flight from Tokyo to Iya Valley where we are assigned to do our group research. As...

Hi.I'm Momo. I'm 18 years old and I don't have my parents anymore and you might wonder why I'm dragging my huge luggage with me. Well, my story starts back in the city I previously lived in. My parents past away because of a car accident back in when I was still a child so my grandmother on my mother's side was the one who took custody of me. But just a few days ago my grandmother died because of a heart attack. I was super sad since grandma was my mom, dad, sister, and my best friend. She raised me with all the love and care that she could ...
