‘Hello, what a pleasant evening! The sky is clear and the stars are shining bright!’ The Diviner greeted with a hearty smile.‘Yes, very pleasant evening indeed.’ Sam nodded, sitting down nervously.‘Is this your first time visiting a diviner?’‘Yes.’‘There’s no need to worry. You are in good hands. So, how can I help you today?’ ‘I um, suspect someone has put a spell on me.’ ‘Oh? You suspect black magic is used against you?’‘I am not sure but that’s what I would like to know.’‘Ok, what made you suspect such a thing, if I may know?’‘S...

Gods Among Us

Moscow, December 18th, 2021 I felt exhausted. It had been a long journey and I felt the sharp pain from the blisters on my feet with every step I made. But the night was fast approaching and the temperature was dropping drastically with every minute past since sundown. I needed to find a place to settle for the night, somewhere that could protect me from the elements. As the sky was getting darker, the city started to pick up a nefarious vibe. With every direction I turned, I saw evil looks lurking from behind the flickering impromptu fire...

Ok, Gene, you can do this. You just need to be polite, be real, get it out as quickly as possible and don’t look back, simple as that.Gene knocked on Veronika’s door, hesitated for a moment, wanting to turn and walk away but he forced himself to be strong and really go through with it this time. He stood there in deep contemplation and suddenly realized no one had answered the door for quite a while now while he was deep in thought.How dare she! Do I not command admiration and respect? From my peers, from the opposite sex, even my superiors,...

I am adding my friend right now.’ ‘Fabulous! You...

There was a noise of chattering in the corridor. Then the door of the student accommodation burst open by a fierce gush of the cold wind bringing the snowflakes inside. ‘Come in, quickly, and close the door after you!’ Ying said in a hushed tone. ‘Ling is still asleep, be quiet.’ ‘Not anymore.’ Ling replied in a weak voice, she looked pale. ‘Well, good. We just came back from the canteen. Let me see.’ Ying climbed up the ladder of the metal bunk bed. She rubbed her hand together furiously and put one hand on Ling’s forehead. ‘A fever i...

The Kill Convention

‘Dad, is the lift going down?’ ‘Yes, son. We are now going deep underground. Remember what I told you?’ ‘What? The truth doesn’t matter, it’s all about deniability?’ ‘Precisely, as long as your mother doesn’t know, she will not be bothered by it, right?’ ‘I guess so. Wow, this is huge! I never thought places like this existed! What is this place?’ ‘This used to be one of the bunkers built during the Cold War period where the local population could seek shelter if there was a nuclear crisis going on. Now, it’s ours without official ...

‘Hey Alex, I got us some more firewood.’ Persephone opened the door and dragged a bag in from the snow buried porch. ‘What have you done Alex? I told you not to move.’‘Ah, you are back.’ Alex woke up to the sound of Persephone’s voice, still lying on the floor next to the bed. ‘I uh, never mind. Help me get back in the bed.’‘Of course.’ Persephone dropped the bag and came to Alex’s aid.Alex suddenly grabbed Persephone’s arm, ‘Who are you, hm?’‘What do you mean? I’m Persephone, your friend. Did you have a concussion?’ Persephone tried to exam...

“Hastings Private Detectives, how may I help you?” “James, it is me, Laura. Sorry to trouble you at this hour, I know it’s late, but I just wanted to know the progress of the case.” “Hi Laura, of course, of course! Don’t you worry about it, we detectives work all hours. Remember what I told you? You can call me any time, any time at all. As a matter of fact, I was just about to call you.” “Oh yes? You found something?” “Are you sitting down?” “It’s that bad huh?” “Afraid so. Your intuition was right, Laura. This man, Sam, is not ...

He Looked Nothing Like Jesus

Existence is pain, Existence is absurd, Existence is pointless… ‘Nadia!’ The familiar shout from her father downstairs drifted up and stopped her pencil mark dead on the paper. ‘Nadia!’ Again, this time much louder, with a thundering bang on the wall for extra effects. ‘Yes, what is it?’ She came back from her dreaded philosophizing and shouted back towards downstairs. ‘Get the door. Somebody is at the door! Are you deaf?’ Her father shouted some more with blurred cursing. ‘Ah, that old drunk! Why can’t he for once do it! H...

Day One I got a phone call from mother, no, let me reframe that, mother left hundreds of voicemails and texts on my mobile phone just to tell me that grandma had died. Ok, that ancient piece of museum quality antique kicked it, so what? Everyone’s gotta die someday, I’ve been waiting for this to happen for quite a few years now but that old piece of shit just won’t drop it. And now, I’m having the time of my life here in university, with all the wild party invites to fulfil and ultra handsome bikes to spot and ride, naturally, I can ...

Seasons' Harvest

Spring: It was one of those moments, those surreal magical moments they say only happen in dreams, perfect temperature, humidity, sunlight, gentle breezes stroking my fevered cheeks, like a deja vu movie scene kept on looping through my daily ecstasy. Mr Sun’s exceptionally tall and athletic figure was standing on the podium like a statue of god as usual with one arm pointing straight out at a boy at the back of the class who just got shaken awake by his seatmate. ‘You, yes you, come on, stand up! How do we solve this equatio...

It’s cold, so cold, ah, ah, aaaaah…. And dark, so dark that I can’t see a thing. What time is it? Where am I? Wait, I, I can’t move! Why can’t I move? I’m scared. What’s happening to me? What... Suddenly I heard a heavy thud and pull followed by a screeching sound then more scratchy sound. It sounded like someone just lifted up a hefty lid of a freezer that hadn’t been opened for some time, the frost clammed to the thick rubber seal and someone was trying to remove it in order to open the lid more. Luckily there was light, very dim though,...

My Name is Ted

Hello Ted. You are late online today. What’s been keeping you? Good evening Jeff. Yes, had to attend to a little family matter. It took longer than I anticipated. How’s school? Same old. What about you? How is life in university? Boring, all day. Yeah? Is there a point of higher education, I sometimes wonder. Considering the hefty financial investment. I suppose career advancements rely on these certificates, connections and whatnot, you know what I mean? And yes, you need to choose a career that’s gonna make it all back, and more. Otherwise...

The Werewolf of Llandeilo

Tonight is the night, the pristine cold blue light of the full moon is piercing through the vast undulating pale mist of the Towy vale. Standing at my window, I carefully remove the needle from the record player and lift up the gauzy satin curtain. My pure gold long nail guards embellished with exotic jewels glint a mesmerising kaleidoscopic sharp cruel sparks. Mortal souls are going to rest as the neighbours' lights turning off one by one, leaving only a few porch lights together with a few streets lights on. The frosty green grass ...

‘Top of the morning to you, Felix.’ the dark grey Persian cat Inkhorn greeted the white poodle, Felix. ‘Oh morning, Inkhorn.’ the poodle looked up while realizing his heavy steps made the ancient oak floorboards creaking again. ‘Didn’t see you so high up there in the shadows, your kind work in stealth, you do, like them ninjas.’ ‘Indeed, we do. So, up before the cockcrow, a rare sight indeed.’ Inkhorn jumped lower from the top of the bookcase to the flower stand without making a single sound. ‘Ay, I sleep less and less these days. Old age, I...
