As I start up from my deep slumber, I feel myself tied onto a chair. The ropes run through my whole body as I sit there with no movement but gloomy thoughts all over my head. All of this started when I wanted to change. The sunlight shone on my face and reflected onto the bright purple walls. I slowly woke up, disconnecting myself from my charging chair to face another lifeless day in Robocity. I went into the wiperoom, a place where we detox ourselves or waste some time like I was going to do now. I touched my chest and a pop-up window ca...

Submitted to Contest #91

He answered, "I have to submit the library book, Drake. Its due date is today." "Are you mad? At 11 PM?"  "Please, Drake." And that sentence did something to me. "Ok, I'll come to your house...

"Don’t always nag at me," my mother shouts at me as I keep roaming behind her."I will be home for just a week, I have been working day and night for the past 6 months, please let me nag," I plead with her. "Okay, just for this week.""That's enough for me!"

I love my family and especially my mother."The main door of the house is a little creaking," I complain to her."Yeah.""Do something.""I won’t."I get to complain about things only now ’cause I’m not far from the call from my boss.My boss, who is a fat, bald man sh...

One fine Sunday morning, I was talking with my friends about family secrets."What's your family secret, Anand?" my friend Anirudh asked. He was a tall and strong man with silky white hair. I began to run away from him as he started to chase me."I'm not going to say," I said, taunting him. I wanted to get away from him and hide somewhere."It would be a food recipe," Anirudh said, laughing."I'm not telling my family secret," I said and ran...

Opportunity can strike out of the blue

Submitted to Contest #49

It was early morning and the sun shone brightly. A man waited before a writer's office where he was called. He was tall and handsome with a round face. It was a tall office and one could see the entire city from the roof. A man who was inside the office, came and opened the door.   The man asked,"why are you here, Sir?". "The famed author Hearth William had called me", the tall man replied.
