When Sofia opened her eyes she felt refreshed. She finally had a good night's sleep. Her duvet perfectly wrapped around her, not too warm and not too cool. Her shades were closed but she could tell it was a sunny day. The phone next to her displayed 11:09 AM which was later than she wanted but still perfect to get some meditation in before her first appointment at 1:15 p.m. She covered her face in her blanket again but this time Oreo, her tiny chihuahua, jumped on her head to wake her. “I knew I should have left your ass...

Julia was not very excited to go on a hiking trip on Thanksgiving. She preferred a more traditional holiday celebration but she has been with Will now for almost two years and he was very adamant that she comes. Maybe he was going to finally propose she thought. She could not have been more wrong. Will did not want to go alone with Chris and his girlfriend Anna. Will prefer to go on hiking trips alone actually but he would never say no to a chance to leave town. Unless it was with family of course because that is just appallin...

A knight stands poised to charge forward under the vigilant eyes of the king. Next to him, the regal queen, resplendent with her majestic crown commands both attention and respect. The crisp autumn air hangs heavy with anticipation. The sound of measured breaths reverberates throughout punctuating the stillness of this momentous event. There is no room for errors as the fate of two unstoppable opponents relies on this one final battle. I snap awake from my medieval daydream when a stage assistant nudges me as my name is being ca...

Another day is almost over. Rosita doesn't know how many of those she has left as she sits in her rocking chair on her porch. She loves watching the sunsets from her porch. Unfortunately, since she lost her eyesight last winter she couldn’t even see those. Nevertheless, she found solace in rocking on her chair feeling the last few sun kisses on her face. Thankfully, she can still feel them. She hears Canela sigh loudly next to her. “Don’t be sad preciosa . I am still here. You can sense it I know.” The dog rubs her face against Ros...

There was no way he was not going to make it to that lake. Today was his last chance to see it and her. The bus station was only a short walk from his hotel in Cusco. As he walked quickly towards the station he was thinking of all the things he could say to Astrid, the girl he met on the bus ride from Machu Picchu less than 24 hours ago. As he approached the station, his dreams dissipated quickly. There were not any buses or people waiting for them. As he walked closer he heard a woman yelling in Spanish. He did...

On a deserted highway in the southwest of the United States, a black Dodge Challenger raced fiercely without any intention of slowing down despite all the twists and turns of the road ahead. Not too far away, behind the wheel of an electric blue Mini Cooper a young woman was singing her heart off to Firework by Katy Perry celebrating her newfound freedom and her upcoming 21st birthday in two days. She was determined to spend the ninth day of June in a majestic pool in a lavish Las Vegas hotel. She finally saved enough money to leav...

That was not the plan. That was the first thought Jenna had as soon as she saw that wedding invitation in her mail pile. She put the invitation at the bottom of the pile and threw it on her dinner table. She didn’t need another reminder of her failure in life. I need a drink. She went to her fridge and grabbed a bottle of Zinfandel that was almost empty. Of course , she thought. She grabbed the bottle anyways and headed towards her couch as her cat, Ginger ran towards it as well as if it was a race. If anyone was...
