Timmy sat in his room, surrounded by cardboard boxes. He heard his parents unloading downstairs. He was used to this scene, but it never made sense. He was an only child, and his parents seemed to move from one city to another a lot. As he stared at the moving boxes, a question that disturbed him returned to his curious mind."Mom, Dad," Timmy began. His parents turned to face him, who were busy packing in the living room. "Can I ask you something?"His mother looked up, a warm smile on her face. "Of course, Timmy! What's on your mind?"His dad...

If you saw this couple, you would have agreed it is the most beautiful couple you have ever seen. The smiling gentleman, his late twenties, in a sleek dark suit - blended in with a young exuberant lady at the table. She had her make-up right that night, not too exaggerated, nor under-done. Just perfect. They were having a sweet conversation - they felt alone. Even with her smooth thighs plunged under the table, she turned heads of men; starving for dinner.The two enjoyed their time near the wide window, and the moonlight sieved through the p...

"Nuuk!" "Nuuk? Never heard of it. Where is that?" “Greenland, aunty.” “Not a clue.” “Really? Denmark?” "When I say 'never heard of it’ I mean I have never heard of it." "North Atlantic??...The country with like…eight people? -" Nothing! It was useless. " Kalaallit Nunaat?" "Stop it! Come on, you are making it worse." *** Among the biggest islands in the world, two-point one million kilometers square is the size of the biggest island in the world. Some people think it is as large as Africa, but in truth, Africa is bigger...

LAST MINUTE

HEADS-UP : TENSION The morning gleam flared through the window blinds' cracks. The flare shadow painted the office desk with lines. A faint breeze made the glint reflect to the monumental white ceiling. I sat on the opposite side facing him, calm and composed. I was terribly nervous in my cheap suit. Nobody would have guessed anyway. Most of my colleagues at my former workplace had kept telling me through our time working together; that I have gifted hands, that picks up the best things everywhere. I picked the best deals, I made the best ...

Terrible Twos

David is my old man; he likes to run. I thought so. The sun had just come out, and I had just opened my store. I was standing and at the reception area, less bothered. I like to remain calm even in a storm. And this man is not a morning kind of a person. So, whenever I saw him, any time before noon, I had to be prepared for the worst. He kicked the entrance door and storm to the reception. I pretended to be busy the moment he fixed his eyes on me. Suddenly, he was standing before me. I was holding a pen, and doodling numbers on the blank pag...

Casual Days

“Are you Dr. Bob?” “Who wants to know!” Bob said storming away from Pitt in the bathroom, wiping his hands with a towel. He throws it in the bin from a distance and it falls on the ground. His sleek black suit, white shirt, and a black and white tie, striped, suspended under his neck hanging to his groin. Well shaven and tall. Pitt is left standing, in his large convex spectacles, in casual wear, shaggy hair, and a bag pack. His football jacket oversized and sneakers. Staring at the towel on the floor. “I am Pitt, I analyze data. This is my...

African Road Trip

The small town, outside the big city, a city of beasts. All types of beasts, humans, and wildlife, all in one basket. But the small town only had silent beasts. Those that speak no evil, but hear all evil. Ready to prey on the ignorant and the arrogant. Teach all the newbies how to walk, eat, and most importantly, how to keep your wallet safe. Otherwise, there are numerous amounts of people ready to pick yours and keep it safe or not so safe for you. I know this. I learned it the hard way. Everybody does. Sometimes people lie and say that th...
