Submitted to Contest #215

+++++Sexual and uncomfortable themes that viewers may find distressing be warned++++++ Are you Rachel? I asked. Yeah, Rachel said. Dominic. Right. That's right, I replied In a gentle tone, she replied: Cool. I asked her what she wanted to drink. She said a macha latte. For myself, I ordered the decaffeinated latte coffee since caffeine makes me twitchy. Her appearance was neat and tidy with a white blouse, fair hair tucked behind her ears.

Submitted to Contest #205

Dzeliera and I first met Lideria at the Dragoon Academy's military induction in town. Lideria guided us outside, with Dzeliera, my fellow graduate, smoking and me self-consciously talking to other admired on-lookers as if I was afraid my idleness would make the others find me out.

“He has the fever; by sundown, he will be dead.” Romiissi watched her donkey, close to death. Drum in hand. This misfortune threatened to undo months of careful planning. The creature that had served her and her brother Serimga well for four months on the pilgrimage way lay on the floor, head down, eyes wide of exhaustion. Romiisii paced up and down around it in panic. Where is he? She thought. Her brother Serimga had yet to return. He had gone into the town, the town the caravan stopped for the day, to restock...

“ReWind” by Will Oyowe

Submitted to Contest #196

I met Katherine in a life different from my own. We both liked each other's dating profiles, both sport themed. I was impressed with her lovely legs, her right leg raised in mid-motion about to kick the football. That was a good photo.During our first date, the connection was instant, despite her being an Arsenal fan. I wanted her badly at the end of the first night, but she did not feel the same. She only said, "You are a nice guy, but we are too different; I am looking for something more authentic."On the second date, I ensured I was the o...
