Submitted to Contest #289

I take a deep breath before I push open the bathroom door. I keep my head down and my long black hair shielding my face like a thick curtain of protection. These nights at places like SILK, which sits at the core of Tokyo’s club scene, can get…intense with the fans, especially after one of our concerts. As one-half of the most celebrated and popular K-pop duo in all of Asia, my privacy was sent to the sacrificial chopping block when I agreed to do this with Han 15 years ago.

“Susie's Suitcase” by Kathleen Majorsky

Submitted to Contest #286

“Owww!”Well, this is no way to start an exciting adventure. Susie threw me on the bed with such force that my wheels were spinning and started to get tangled in the pink rumpled sheets. If my wheels hadn’t already been able to swivel 360 degrees, they would have fallen off. Then how could we quickly trot through a crowded airport if I had a broken wheel?! Susie would replace me in a heartbeat if that happened. Gasp!And to think of all the trips we’ve been on. Thailand. Indonesia. Russia. South Korea. Australia. Japan. Oh and how could I forg...
