Seek and find.

Submitted to Contest #55

“Let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone” That was the quote that Phillip had found several times in sundry websites while making his new investigation, it seemed to be the motto of some sort of club. He became obsessed with finding out who were the members of that group and how to stop them. Phillip was a hacker who specialized in discovering the dirty laundry of important people to blackmail them with that information. He knew that it was not the line of work his mother would want him to follow, but he found it morally ...

On the bus.

Submitted to Contest #50

It was a regular Saturday and my routine started early in the morning, being on the bus heading to work. Some minutes before, my alarm clock had yelled at me several times, until I clumsily turned it off and sat at the edge of my bed wishing I had more time to sleep; ultimately, it was the weekend, good heavens. Anyways, there in the bus I was, in a window seat with my bag on my lap and my lunch box next to my right foot, on the floor, already awake and alert after that cheese sandwich and hot coffee I had had for breakfast. My book in my ha...

New Life

Submitted to Contest #49

It has been four months since I arrived in this country. Four months seem to be a short period of time, not very transcendental, but they could become an eternity when you are waiting for something. Every day of the last four months, my head has gotten tired of counting the seconds, the minutes, the hours, to be closer to today, august 20th. At first, I did not know how much time I had to wait; I was just hoping that it would not be too long. The only assurance I had, was that waiting was unavoidable, and that the amount of time was unpred...

Play dead.

Submitted to Contest #47

You look concerned, watching through the window for hours now, and more anxious than normal. That could only mean that you saw the news. It is there, isn’t it? Terrible news, absolutely, but everything would be okay, you know that. You had been planning it for so long, that there were no mistakes. You made sure of that, there would be no problem. Could you stop? Why are you packing your clothes? Improvising in this kind of conditions is not good. You do not have a backup plan, when did you decide this? Was it today? After reading the news?...

Absent Muse.

Submitted to Contest #46

There I was, as I used to do every morning for the last two weeks, sitting in front of my computer with my cat on my lap, a blank stare and not a single word written. The deadline was near, and I needed to deliver something, the pale page looked back at me, reminding me thatI had no ideas, or, as it would be better to say, no inspiration. Last semester, I had become kind of famous at the university after I won the poetry contest and three of my poems were published in the university paper. Some critics even called my work “astonishing” and c...

A day in a life.

Submitted to Contest #44

The strangest thing just happened to me today: on the way to work I came across an old newspaper posting my picture and mentioning that I had been reported as a missing person. The newspaper is four months old, and reading the article, it says my wife had been all this time looking for me, apparently, I left for work and never came back, nobody knows where I have been. There is also a detailed description of the clothes I was wearing the day I allegedly disappeared, a detailed description of my physique, my age, everything relevant in findin...

Furry Launch

Submitted to Contest #43

Eddy and his family just moved to a new city, since his dad had found a great job opportunity. The new house was still a mess, with a lot of packed boxes from the move, and even, there were some belongings of the previous owner still in the attic. The house needed a lot of work, but Eddy was happy that his parents were happy; this sacrifice meant a better future for them. However, Eddy was having troubles to adapt to his new life, because he did not have friends at the new school or in the neighborhood yet. He knew it was just a matter of ti...
