My name is Martin Walker. I am an English teacher at a disciplinary high school. Disciplinary, because, the students don't have the guts to walk into the school premises with rifles and pistols. I love my job, because of the good pay and joyful life-changing moments with the amazing kids.Ok, that wasn't it, but that's part of it. I love kids, you know. The truth is, I have always loved marking scripts and grading scores. It's fun knowing people's grades and better when I'm the one giving the grades.It's the last of school before the winter h...

"A beautiful evening, don't you think?", the old man delightfully asked as he made his way towards me.Quickly turning towards his direction out of surprise, I stuttered, "Yes - it is". I was lost in thoughts before that moment. Many things were running through my mind. I have always been a lonely overthinker. It has been a habit which is quite impossible for me to desist from.

The only friends he has, he says are exceptional and that could be a reason to love or ...

Duncan Rogers and Donald Anderson have been best friends since high school. Often, they were called Double D. Obviously, because their first names shared a peculiar starting letter 'D' and also because they were almost inseperable, having a likeness for the same things, but not everything. Duncan is hard-headed, strong-willed, unreluctant, a diehard party goer due to certain unfavourable situations in his life. He was raised by his single dad, who served in the military until his unfortunate death during a war, leaving Duncan all alone becau...
" I was just a little girl, so tender and innocent", I screamed to the tall man standing in front of me. A baby abandoned at the age of 2 for reasons she never could comprehend. I yearned for my father and protector when I was sad and afraid but he was never there to comfort me. I always thought, somehow, I was an unwanted child that would have been aborted. I already began having traumas at a very young age. My primary schoolmates would be picked up from school by their fathers and would be comforted in their loving arms. I would be so envi...
