Be Careful What You Wish For

Submitted to Contest #281

The next day was a clear, blue Wednesday morning, and when I woke up, I still felt the same as I did yesterday morning… Only this time, I realized I had magical superpowers; yesterday, I had no idea. Assuming that my powers were gone after I flushed that piece of paper down the toilet, my life was going to return to normal after all this. This was just a temporary thing, even if I’d already written in the diary with a pen. No more wishes for the time being. For now, whatever I wished for, I’d type it onto my Google Docs.

Law and Order… That sounded like a good show to watch. Except Netflix didn’t have it available, though it had similar shows, such as Suits for one. Why not? Nothing could beat Suits after all.

Dark Impulses

He was a modern-day Ted Bundy, but he couldn’t help it. It’s just who he was. He was obsessed with sex, and there’s nothing more that he liked than objectifying every single woman or young girl he saw. A young girl could innocently walk past him on the street, and in an instant, he’d visualize himself in an erotic position with her, hoping she didn’t resist him. And once that was done… He’d kill her. Because that’s just who he was. He was waiting outside in a room to be called for an interview at the office. The office had an opening for the...
