“Help Me God Pick The Right One!!” by Judith Buskohl

Tomorrow was Christmas Day and she was still shopping for the perfect gift for one special man in her life, her Dad. Since mom passed on two years before from a heart issue, he needed something in his life; he would just go out to buy it. Her parents had always been on the soft side of easy street, so her dad was well off and didn’t have to work one day more in his golden years.  She always chuckled as she watched the lo...

“Uncle Edward????” by Judith Buskohl

Paula gathered her mail for the day and continued on her way to the apartment she had rented for the last two years without a second glance at what precious mail she had received that day.

“Families, Dear Families” by Judith Buskohl

Seth sat on the park bench watching the parents playing with their children and the couple that was walking through the park on a sunny day that seemed to relax your bones until you feel like melting into the warm cement sidewalk. Thinking back to his own childhood, he regretted how he treated his parents. He was on the rebellious side and every time his parents were getting calls from his school about how he disrupted classes that he was in. How he bullied someone at school and they got lectured about how the parents could...

“Feelings of Lovers” by Judith Buskohl

The air around the twosome was snapping with passion and the romance seemed to be fresh, alive with feelings that want to come to the surface.  Arms were entwined around the other’s body as they held the body hard against their body. Eyes and lips only inches apart as their lips itched to be firmly planted against the other person’s lips. Feeling were hot and trying to bubbly over as the sun was setting on their romance ...

“Attention or Attraction” by Judith Buskohl

She replied softly, “Nelson, I am not too sure that we can pull this off.” as they sat opposite each other trying to look like they were in love. Their hands were clasping each other tenderly and their eyes were staring into the depths of the other person. He smiled at her with a smile that said “I love you!” and his soft brown eyes held a twinkle that Sue had come to know as his “lying twinkle”. Whenever he was lying or...

“Death Until The Moon Rises” by Judith Buskohl

She loved to walk after dinner to get exercise because she sat at a desk all day long, hearing her boss’ voice drone on about how he wanted his letter to sound. Telephone had been going off all day long about orders that had gone to the wrong place and orders that should have already been sent out. She heard her boss cussing and yelling at people to do their jobs right, all day long about how much a screw up some people ...

“Witches In Circle” by Judith Buskohl

Ladies were standing in a circle saying words that didn’t make any sense to Laura’s ears. She had followed two women into the woods near her house thinking they knew a shortcut to the other side of the woods. No, they were standing in a circle grasping other women’s hands and muttering words that sounded like gibberish. Words that didn’t make any sense to her “Ohik Notman Didtn Seepe” or something like that. She wanted t...

“Bump In The Night” by Judith Buskohl

Bump in the night goes the noise, loud enough to cause Jane to wake up out of a dead sleep. Terrified, that someone was in the apartment with her while she slept, she thought about calling the police. Knowing that she was going to go looking to see what she could find. Maybe a cat had somehow got into her apartment and she would feel foolish if she called the police which would come to find nothing. She laid in her soft ...
