“BITTERSWEET” by Yuk Yuk

HER POV"Our young master has changed," the young maid murmured, her voice barely above a whisper, carrying the weight of rumor and unease that permeated the palace's corridors like a shroud. How could she not have noticed?- The whispers had spread like wildfire, tales of the ambush during the Imperial hunt echoing through every chamber. The crown prince's limp body dragged from the icy embrace of the river, had become the centerpiece of a macabre spectacle. The pallor of his skin, once warm and vibrant, now resembled the ghostly hu...

The midnight wind carrying droplets continuously washed over the drenched rider yet he remained unfazed; thrusting the horse to move faster.The camp tents are in view making out only the figures of soldiers he could count on his fingers, six. The sound of the horse disturbing the rather unusual quiet night draws the attention of the soldiers and they gathered at the outskirts of the tents.The rider finally pulls on the reins bring the horse to a...

“All out” by Yuk Yuk

RYLEEShe heard hushes, whispers and bickers all in an unconscious attempt to hide their fear. She wiped her sweaty palm on her jeans and walked into the poorly lit living room. The whispers muffled out and she could feel the questioning eyes on her. She stopped in her spot, feeling out of place before continuing towards the quivering brunette biting on her knuckles. She was spaced out on the arms chair murmuring to herself. She was the most distraught not even noticing the figure standing beside her.<...

“Second Choice” by Yuk Yuk

"Should I book the ticket back home now or later?" Home? For my assistant is her flat with her newly wed husband and their overweight cat. I could tell by the number of times she's excused herself to the bathroom to make a call or return a text that she missed him and he had missed her. I could hear her giggling under her breathe or the way she smiled at her phone.I, on the other hand, have nothing waiting for me. I'd had go back to my busy life, with non stop business meetings. I'd go HOME a...

“Infinite Possibilities” by Yuk Yuk

Submitted to Contest #95

We broke up. Technically, we were never together; but I guess I began to think we were. I began to imagine our future together although I didn't make much of it; it was just a possibility. We could have been happy together. Ava, that would be our daughter's name, we'd laugh and play in the garden of our small home. We'd grow old in each other arms. It was perfect but that's only one way it could go. A possibility. We live in a world of infinite possibilities. There always would exist another p...

“Move On: Rock bottom” by Yuk Yuk

Submitted to Contest #75

Ever reached rock bottom? No, not that fantasy world with the talking fishes and tasty burgers. It's a mental place. And when you get there, your brain automatically tells you to leave. Get out. Move on. But it's never easy.Some of us didn't exactly stick the landing and we're broken pieces scattered around.Maybe we pick ourselves together, maybe we don't. Maybe we're too tired, tired of it all, tired from the drop, tired of being broken, tired of being put back together, tired of falling after getting back up, or...

"Just another suicide case. Nothing to see really."You'll be the judge of that.Welcome, you must be the new detective. I'm guessing this is your first case. No problem, I'm Maya, I'm your guide. The scene sets in a teenage girls bedroom. The darkness, a thick fog, in the room.

“Memory Gap” by Yuk Yuk

Submitted to Contest #68

It has been twenty four years since I'd last seen it, but the place looks exactly the same. My grip tightens around the seat belt, as we pull up the driveway. My stomach churnes. I fear the Burritto, I got from the drive through, would be on the carpet of my Toyota Tacoma. Breathe Catheleen. Breathe. "I was so happy when you called yesterday. I couldn't believe it..." Except, I don't remember. I don't remember calling her or asking her to bring me back...here. Was I drun...

Ma's Golden boy sat at the quiet dinner table with a full plate. He wasn't Ma's favourite, Ma never did favourites; as always, every one at the table had equal portions. Although, Ma didn't heed to the plea of her Golden boy, the bland porridge wasn't all that bland, that's because they ate in tears. It's only normal they cried, they had watched their brother die few minutes ago. And now they were forced to have dinner. "You'd better eat your food, if you don't want to end up like him," Ma had said. Ma had a few ru...

I moved again.Contrary to what my mum might think, I'm not running, again. At least, I think I'm not. I'm searching. What I'm searching for? I have no idea. I believe I'll know, when I see it. There are advantages of moving a lot, you get to meet new people, new cultures. There's also a down side- saying goodbye. You'd think I would know by now and not form close relationships; but I do anyways. When I get comfortable, I leave, never getting to say goodbye. The E-mailed ...

Highschool is amazing. Wrong! Its a shit hole, where they trampe your hopes and dreams. Demons apparently rule the place because they are rich or hot or if their lucky, they are both. So if you think highschool is okay, chances are you are one of them. Even at that, you're still crazy. And No. I'm not overreacting. I'm reacting just fine.Yet, everyone is trying to fit in. Spending hours each week day in front of your mirror, deciding on what to wear. There are more important things than that people.I wa...
