A humming engine roars through the brisk morning air. Two men dressed in grey suits drive in a white car, their dress matching the dull sky. The driver has light brown hair, slicked straight back. His partner in the passenger seat sports dark hair and dark brown eyes, his short hair parted to one side. “Can you hand me that water in the back?” asks the driver, Ron. The passenger, Cander, reaches back and hands him the bottle. “Thank you,” Cander inattentively nods in response and continues looking forward. “Something wrong? You’ve been silent all day. Although, that’s not much unlike any other day.” Ron continues. “Just thinking about where we’re going today.” Cander responds. “Always with your mind on the task at hand huh? Here I am thinking you were just tired from a wild late night?” Ron says shaking his head and grinning. “You know I don’t go to any of those places.” Cander says irritably. “Actually, I don’t know much about you. Besides, I would be there if it wasn’t for this,” Ron lifts his hand off the wheel and flashes his wedding ring. “Over a year working at Ichor together and I’ve pretty much just got your name. Oh and age too, I think, what was that again?” Cander tilts his head back in a small laugh. “It seems that’s what everyone is doing these days, must be some appeal. Ever been? “Yes. A while ago.” Cander says back sternly. “And? What’s the problem?” Cander wipes the side of his brow. “Everyone at those places,” he says while exhaling deeply.
“Uh, yeah! Sure!” When I knew I was l alone I ran all over town looking for the source of the snow. I finally found it at an abandoned warehouse just outside of town. I waited a couple of seconds before saying something but before I could, someone spoke.
Eugene rose to his feet. “Sure they're over there. We've been watching both the front and the back of her place since before the sun came up.”
Juvia smiles. “Same with Juvia.” Cana catches Juvia eyeing her up and down out of the corner of her eye and she presses her lips together to hide her smirk.
“I can’t help it,” he said sheepishly. “You’re just… there and I see all of
“Yes Christopher?” Cander asks with a small grin across his face. “Wait what place did you say?...You’re joking right?... Amrita?... I don’t know man that place can get pretty crazy. Whatever happened to our normal meet up place?... Not really my scene…Alright… Alright, I’ll stop by.” Cander hangs up the phone, he inhales deeply and slumps his shoulders, knowing full well the type of place he’s going into.
“Oh… Where?” Tom’s mood suddenly decreases after hearing that but still gives a cheerful smile.
“Oh, good. I just finished a lecture for group of undergrads. A few of the students lingered after class with questions about a paper I’ve assigned.”
“Aw, c’mon, this ain’t even the worst dumpster I’ve hung around,” the boy joked, looking at the dumpster almost fondly. “The ones behind restaurants are always the best.”
He left the office and went straight to the bedroom. He was going to see if there was anything that he could change into, but he immediately just collapsed on the bed.
I watched him fall. Pelting down like rain down the tower that nearly touched the sky. It happened all so fast I couldn't think to move. To react. To shutter. He just fell until his limp body kissed the ground. I tried to move. To run to him. But my body felt paralyzed and broken. I felt a tear slowly run down my cheek as the pain finally slipped out. My once bright blue eyes became red and puffy as a waterfall of tears excited me. I still couldn't move though, my small physique was stuck to the grass under our tree. My heart was crumbed into a million peices. He was gone. He was dead.
The next morning I woke up next to Carl and I rolled over and kissed him on the cheek then got up to check on Judith.As I walked down the hallway and into her room I was thinking of how dad told me about mom. I found her sitting up in her crib. "Hey there sweetheart!" I said excitedly I walked over and picked her up out of the crib and placed a kiss on her cheek."Okay baby girl I'·ma go make breakfast." I carried her downstairs and placed her in her high chair. I started washing dishes from last nights dinner then decided to start breakfast for everyone. While it was cooking I sat there feeding Judith a small bowl of applesauce then suddenly there was a knock on the door. I put the spoon down and answered the door it was Ron. "Hey Ron, what's up?" I asked."Hey can I come in and talk to you for a minute?" He asked in reply. I stepped aside and opened the door a little more and said "Yeah, We'll just need to be quiet Rick, and Carl are still asleep I'm making breakfast and watching Judith." We walked back into the kitchen and I checked on the food then turned to Ron. "What did you need to talk ab-?" Before I could finish my sentence Ron's lips crashed on mine and I was taken back for a minute not really knowing what to do but I melted into it eventually kissing back then I thought of Carl and pulled apart from Ron looking at him shocked. “Ron what was that all about?” I asked as he sat down and He replied. “Bailey since the day I met you I can’t get you out of my head.” “Ron
“You knew our granddaughter was pregnant,” Margaret said, thinking that eventually, someone would tell them.
My eyes open to the sound of birds through my open bedroom window, only to find an empty and peaceful house. As a curious 7 year old I quickly walk out of my room, down the hall and into the living room. Sitting on the couch is my grandma, sitting there with the sole purpose of telling me my mom went into labor last night and is currently at the hospital. Jumping with joy, I go back into my room and get ready to go meet my new brother! After I am changed and my teeth are brushed I get some things together to keep my occupied throughout the day because my grandma told me today would be a very long one. I grab my shoes and walk out the door and to my grandma’s car. As I grab the door handle to hop into the back seat, I think back to the wonderful days I had spent in Disneyland, a couple weeks earlier, when I was still an only child, something that will never be again.
“Yeah, it’s been a pretty good night. A lot of people turned up. You know how I worry about that not happening.” Adrian chuckled,
The brisk chill air blow by while i stood waiting for the bus. My family can only have two cars because of the low amount of gas for everyone’s cars. That's why I ride the bus, have no other way to get home from school. “Hey Jess!” I hear my name being called. It’s Alex, her short hair wavy hair is being blown all over the place.
