Scleral Etchings
I looked into his arctic blue eyes. My painted lips formed an even more painted on artificial smile. Artifice is, after all, an extension of nature, right? …Right? I hoped, likely in vain, that this caricaturization of natural human emotion distracted from the reflections in my eyes. Ones I feared might still be there after having blinked, slept, forgotten. Reflections in my glassy brown eyes of the countless Google searches ranging from “painless suicide methods” to “how long does it take to die from hanging?” I feared those inquiries were somehow permanently etched into the whites of my...

The Case of the Secret Gems (P.Du Sang Mystery) pt 2
Hi Pauline, are you alright?” Mr. Brown asked as he watched her slam her car door and storm up her front porch.
“Hey, Mr. Brown. Everything is superb.” She said as she opened her front door to the house. She turned giving him a slight smile, in hindsight, it might have looked a little strange since she never smiled at him before. She went inside, dropped her keys on the little table by the door, and straight to the guest bedroom on the second flight.
Pauline opened the door and immediately regretted that she left all her things in boxes.
“Well, there is no...

Bonfire Publishing part 2
Once the plane landed in Heathrow. I hate to admit that Sam was right. The day was gray and there was moisture on the ground from a light rain.
Looking at both of them, walking through the terminal, with an attitude of ‘I can't believe I am here doing this when I could be home doing something else.’
Correction, that only came off of Meg. What came off of Sam was I'm not messing with these people, and they are going to give us the money we asked for.
The meeting was to be held at “The Cause”. It was a nightclub that is on the East End of London...

Alia vs Stuck Up Career Lady
"Your PhDs don't impress me much. Some people are wise beyond their years without our shitty education system."
Fight!
Alia holds a ruler almost as big as her. Like a sword.
They circle around each other.
Stuck up career lady uses all her school knowledge, has a book in her hand. Alia uses everything combined.
Alia dodges all her indoctrinating moves, and she goes right into the attack, slicing her in half with the sharp ruler.
Fatality move: All the papers and knowledge the stuck career lady has accumulated flies...

Secrets - The Contact
Yeah, I have a secret journal. Case notes relating to you. After the crowbar attack, Lana asked me to let the past go – which I did. Maybe not entirely, though. When Lana left during the summer, I created the secret journal, encrypting the content for privacy.
The visit to your mother has got me thinking again.
The police, the possibility that they didn't follow through a crucial lead (according to your mother), and my own involvement with the police as an adult when I did something that I suppose would be against the law – technically, at least.

The Case of the Secret Gems (P.Du Sang Mystery)
The ice popped, in the glass filled with warm vodka, waking Pauline out of a memory of the last person who really knew her. Her mother. Her lifeless body lay without color, and without a soul in a casket that was lined in pearlesk silk.
“Sorry for your loss, Polly.” That came from Maggie Smother’s, a childhood gossip that never really grew out of that annoying penchant.
“Thank you,” Polly said as she took a quick glance at her overly-filled plate of food.
“I hear you're leaving. What are you going to do with the house, Polly?”

Life Lessons pt 2 (England)
One year later, turning fourteen should not be a pivotal point in anyone’s life. Spoke too soon.
Mom told me and my sister we were all going to England to visit family for the summer. We did not know how to feel since we had never met them before. We left when the sun was setting in the city. It was a beautiful site to see through the small circular window of the plane.
She gave both of us a piece of gum and we thought that was strange since we both have braces and are not allowed to eat it normally.
“Chew it and swallow when we take off. It will help with...

Bonfire Publishing part 3
The three of us left the club and there was a car waiting. We entered the car without a word being said to each other.
“Fuck this. Who is he to you?” Meg asked
I sat there and sighed because Jordan succeeded in having them doubt me. Right now it is only
Meg voicing her question and I knew she would be first. That hot Mississippi blood flowed through her.
“I told you he was my Dom and I was his sub. Then it ended.” I said.
“Does he know that it is ended? Do you think I didn't notice? While I am in the middle of my verbal castration...

Life Lessons
The year was 1986
I did not know gazing out my tenth-floor apartment building window I would see my future. I was only thirteen at the time and restless.
There he was. I knew his name because all the girls talked about him as if he was a famous person and they all wanted a piece of him.
I was different. My mother and sister were sitting in the living room watching television when I told my mother, “I’m going to marry Gio one day.”
My mother immediately told me to get away from the window and stop talking nonsense about marriage.
