“Repurrcussion” by Sean Sorce

"It's not fair," I said as I pouted onto the living room couch in front of my family.In front of me was a opened Christmas present which sat on the coffee table. It had the colors of green and blue stripes for the exterior with holes in it. Inside was a creature with gray fur with pointy ears, white whiskers and a small head. It had black stripes upon his furry gray body and acquired blue eyes along with a short tail. If you couldn't have guess it, the creature was a desert lynx cat which looked to be no older than 3 yea...

“Lady in Red” by Sean Sorce

"I hope she notices," I whispered this to my date as we walked (what looked like slow motion) into the fancy restaurant which was accompanied by a live jazz band. I've been a bodybuilder for as long as I can remember and I always looked good in a suit regardless how ripped I was. Even my date can agree to that statement.My date, Lolo, was a beautiful slender mix woman whom I asked to help me out for the evening. She wore a red dress that even would make Jessica Rabbit jealous. Lolo and I go way back since the days of our...

As I pulled up, my driver instructor was on her clipboard taking notes on my driver's test.This is my second attempt and I was more nervous than the first time. The last instructor was a middle aged man who never once hinted a smile and had a cold demeanor.

“Stuart's Got This” by Sean Sorce

'I got this,' I said to myself as I was beginning to walk down towards the starting line with the other contenders.

“Nigel Goes to A Bar” by Sean Sorce

"I'm sorry Nigel, but your mother and I think you should grow up by cutting your expenses. You need learn some responsibility especially if you want to be the next boss in our family firm," said my dad on the other end of my iphone.

My dad continued explaining the decision he and mother made just recently.Annoyed, I replied: "So what am I supposed to do father? Just live like a pleasant?""Yes my son. I think that i...

“Nigel's First Ball Game” by Sean Sorce

'I can't believe I've been subjective to this,' I said this to myself as I following Frank through the stands. I was practically begged into coming here out of all places in Milwaukee and wouldn't you know it was Miller Park or something. Apparently they changed the name of the stadium recently but Frank keeps on calling it Miller Park anyway. I never was a big fan of baseball or any sort of sport within the matter.All I was interested was money and business. My family owes the firm over in London. I was suppo...
