“A Time Of Crime.” by Naya Putryansyah

*murder warning and graphic descriptions*#1My phone rang in the middle of the night, and I awoke.I blinked my eyes open and stretched my hands upwards, grappling around for my phone.I finally found it and saw that Mother was calling me. My insides lurched; what happened?I answered, ''Yes, Mother?'' She gulped on the other side of the line, ''Dad's gone.'' I felt my face go white with fear, and I grasped the phone tighter.''What?'' I replied, my heart beating fast. Mother sniffed, ''Dad's gone,'' She repeated, ''He was murdered.'' And I broke...

Segment two, what will happen? do you have a clue?Segment one flashback:---Tears of happiness flowed down my face. "Charlotte, you're the best. I knew from the moment I met you, you're the one. Will you accept me as your forever partner in life and marry me?"I answered without a doubt, "Yes!! Jamie, yes!!"

“A Night in Paris, segment one.” by Naya Putryansyah

Segment one, 50% done.I was walking down the college corridors and suddenly a boy blocked my way.I smiled playfully, then I tried to go through him. He won't let me. "Hi. I'm Charlotte." I said, holding my hand out, I was quite a bold girl. The boy replied, "Hello Charlotte, I'm James." His voice was thick with a French accent."Es-tu français James?," I asked, he smiled, "Je m'appelle mademoiselle, comment peux-tu parler français si couramment?" I said, "I take lessons, James."And from there, we always went to class together and became good ...

“The House of Mirrors” by Naya Putryansyah

I grasped my sister's hand as she pulled me to the House of Mirrors.I have an opposed feeling towards mirrors, but I'm not really sure if it's trauma or a phobia, but I hated them.When I was 6 years old, my brother, who was great at drawing, drew a big, scary, smiling clown with teeth bared, a circular, red nose, and blue hair on my bedroom mirror with colourful Sharpies.I woke up, and per my routine, strolled casually to the mirror, wanting to look at my reflection first thing in the morning, when I discovered the horrendous drawing.I jumpe...

Yet, they're scary, beautiful and pretty, yet scary......

“Inspiration and Love.” by Naya Putryansyah

In the heart of a sprawling forest, where ancient trees loomed tall and their branches whispered secrets to the wind, lived a young woman named Elara. She was an artist with an insatiable curiosity, always seeking inspiration in the beauty of the natural world that surrounded her. One fine morning, with her sketchbook and pencils in hand, Elara decided to venture deeper into the forest than she had ever gone before. The sun filtered through the dense canopy, casting dappled patterns of light on the forest floor. Elara followed a narrow tra...

“That One Loss.” by Naya Putryansyah

The air was cool and crisp as Briar stepped out of her weathered sedan and onto the gravel forecourt of a rustic gas station. The sun had begun its descent, casting a warm golden hue over the landscape. Briar stretched her arms above her head, her tired muscles protesting after hours of driving. She had been on the road for what felt like an eternity, a lone traveler in search of something she couldn't quite articulate. The gas station, with its retro charm, seemed like a haven in the midst of the unfamiliar countryside. Flickering fluores...

“9 Steps to Get Out of a Car Kidnapping.” by Naya Putryansyah

I was driving down Sunset Street and I was so full of my mother's vegatarian lasagna and was already thinking of getting extra cozy in my small bed. Abruptly, I saw a pair of headlights in the rear view mirror, I usually brush it off as another person trying to get home too. But, after I made a few turns it was still behind me. I was starting to feel anxious, it seemed like that car was following me. To make sure that it was, I made a few more turns and roundabouts. It was still behind me. That's fixed. I have a follower behind me. ...

“1 step forward, 3 steps back.” by Naya Putryansyah

"CUT!!" My director said as he waved his hands madly at me, I smiled and thought I had done a good job, until, I saw the director's face. Ugh. Wrong again. 1 step forward, 3 steps back. Well, at least I tried, I said to myself as I smiled at the thought of how hard I worked for this position and now that I am in this position, well, it's complicated. 1 step forward, 3 steps back. I've always been forgotten, not in a way where I am left behind but in a way where I work so very hard to do something for someone and that someone, forgot ...

“That One Crime.” by Naya Putryansyah

At 11:00 P.M., Monday, March 19. I was sitting across a table, facing two high-school girls, not as a father looking at his precious daughters with a loving face, but as a police inspector looking at two murderers with a hard, stern face. "Why did you kill your father by hammering a spike into his head?" I said, the younger one, Hanna, answered first, "We didn't mean to." in a most appealing voice, though one which I didn't buy. The older one, Mary, replied to her with gritted teeth, "Yes. We. Did. Mean. It." I looked at Mary, then turned ...

“That One Ending.” by Naya Putryansyah

7 o'clock, I was exhausted from the day's work. I work as an EO or an Event Organizer. This was a magical show with little kids with their snotty little noses singing a squeaky version of "Let It Go" I tried to smile as naturally as I could because the parents were there watching their children with proud, smiling faces. I don't know why my job is like this, but it's the highest-paying job I ever got, cause I literally get 2,500 or sometimes more as a tip for every party or show I throw. It's usually either school plays or kids' birthdays. I...
