Manolis Kokogiannakis

I woke up with a start, the dream still vivid in my mind. Oral’s words echoed in my ears, “Hope, Life, Joy.” I knew I had to carry on the mission my father had started. The tree of peace created by one magical leaf, planted from my dad, stood tall and proud, a symbol of resilience and hope.

Here is what it said.“Hi, I'm John.”“We know your name John!”“What did you say?”“WE SAID WE KNOW YOUR NAME IS JOHN!!”“What?!”COMMENTS:Harry: Who’s John???Robert: He used...

Manolis Kokogiannakis

*These three stories combined together.Goodbye…I had no idea this would happen, let me explain, after I relaxed myself after that month…1st of MayIt was a casual day, I was walking to work, when a man wearing a business suit came to me and showed me a velvet coloured origami cube, also an azure tinted origami bird. He explained to me that I needed to land the bird onto the cube. I tried for half an hour or so and finally got it. I was hoping for money, but instead he gave me a box, clad with gold and patterned with a glorious wave. Inside th...
