Charles Bryant Narrative

Alice is still trying to comprehend the idea of John taking a new job in a new state, as she was hoping he would take a sabbatical and spend a year with her during her time of declining cognition. Anna and Charlie pay their parents a visit and bring along their new children, Allison and Charlie Jr. The doorbell rings and John opens the door to let Anna and Charlie in. The couple and their children move to the living room to sit on the couch with Alice. “Ann”, Alice says, thinking that her deceased sister is seated across from her.

“Breaking News! During the afternoon of April 23rd, Dr. Phil Johnson was found dead in his office. The murderer is unknown, but luckily for us former detective Stan Walter, a good friend of Phil’s has taken the case into his hands. If you have any thoughts to who the murderer is please report it to the police. Back to you Alex!” The tv turns black and I look over to see who the culprit was and it was my wife Rosalind. “Honey, I know it’s devastating about your loss, but your food is getting cold. Now come eat.” “Ok” I respond, annoyed. At dinner my wife and I talk about the decision of taking the job as the detective for Dr. Phil Johnson’s death since he is my friend. Eventually, she gave in and let me go to my office.

The fluffy, snowflake white clouds play tag in the intensely blue sky. The trees wave continuously, while their bodies remained still. The birds chirped, loudly, outside the clear, old window of the unnecessarily blue antique house that everyone assumed was strange. No one assumed anything strange about the house owners with one daughter, who was naturally spoiled to the core. No one thought anything about her, or how she had an endless amount of shoes and clothes. Not how she never wore the same clothes twice, ever, her name was Katie Brooks, her mother’s name was Moringa Brooks, and finally, the most important of all, her father’s name was Peterson Brooks. Mr. Brooks may not seem important now, but he is, you’ll see. He was actually the

“Coming” she said with her upbeat voice. “Oh, Mary what are you doing here?” she said confused. “Have you been sleeping with my husband?” I say practically screaming. At this point there is no calming me down. “Mary, before you say anything, it wasn’t my fault it was yours.” she said and god it made me madder. “Are you saying that my husband cheating on me is my fault!” I said while everything in the room is becoming blurry. “Well, it wasn’t my fault he wasn’t getting the attention he needed.” she said. I had nothing else to say, I was done with talking. I grabbed the closest thing to me and it turned out to be a gun. POW! Went the gun. Red liquid was everywhere and any minute now there will be a cop here. I was about to leave until I seen my green truck pull up in the driveway. JOHN. He ran up to the door and began to band on the door. “Holly, Mary has gone crazy and I hit her. God I love her so much I can’t loose her.” he says. I open the door, but hide behind the door. “Oh my god! Holly, I am so sorry.” he says out loud. He leans down crying and kisses her on her lips wiping the blood all over her face. Before I knew it I heard another POW! “ Mam, come out or we will

Life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we react to it _Dennis P. Kimbro When Liam first fell ill that saying ran through my head like a zebra running through and open field but over and over and again. Liam was air flown to Iowa City where my mom and sister left me with the two younger kids to watch. It was a long night when I got the text on my phone that Liam coded and the Doctors had to resuscitate him. I have never felt that my heart was broken, it was like it was a dream. I kept telling myself that everything would be fine and that i had to collect myself because his brother and sister were watching me. I got another text 30 some minutes later say that the Doctors had to put Liam in a medically induced coma. His body wasn’t letting blood flow

It was now after six in the evening, and he hadn’t stopped all day…had barely stopped all week. In addition to dealing with new work commitments, he’d been fielding calls from his wife’s – soon to be ex-wife’s – lawyer. And his own lawyer. The divorce was going to be settled quickly, at least. He wanted that much, and Alisa was good for that much; she didn’t want it to drag on, either. He knew he should eat and relax…he needed to freshen up, first. He pulled his suit coat off and headed into the bathroom…and just looked at himself in the

Nodding his head toward Michelle, Judge Hunter said, “Please read the letter.” Opening the envelope, looking at the letter, Michelle faced the jury and began to read. “To Whom It May Concern: Writing this letter breaks my heart. Although, I felt it was necessary to do so, in the event of an unexplainable accident. Recently, I learned my daughter, was having an extramarital affair, and approached her, before talking to her husband. At first, she denied it, then threatened me if I told anyone about it because she needed both men to complete her life ─ Jerry for financial and Frank for physical and emotional needs. Boasting, she said it had been going on for years, and no one knew about it. Heartbroken, I pleaded with her to terminate it. She refused and swore, if I caused trouble, she would put me in my grave.

Finally out, he sees his family, waiting with rainbow size smiles on their faces. Nikki ran like ripples through water and hugged him so tightly. At the moment, all of his anxiety and fears went away. He knew at that moment how happy she was just to have her dad again. “Daddy” Nikki exclaimed as she hugged him tighter with tears running down her face, “I missed you so much!” Flo cried tears of joy as he embraced his daughter. Flo said, “I’ve missed you too, baby girl. Look how big my baby has got.” “Look how beautiful you are.” He gave her compliment after compliment. He looked at Ariana affectionately and thought to himself how lucky he was to have someone who would be there for him after making such a horrible mistake. Nikki said, “Now you can finally leave this place for good” as she hugged him. Flo said, “yes, now I can go home with my family instead of seeing you walk away, as I have done some many times when you visited me.” Once Flo made it home, his family welcomed him with a celebratory dinner. Nikki had made all of his favorite foods. No one brought alcohol. After he ate, he took his daughter outside for a breath of fresh air. She walked aside of her father and listened as he talked about how much he

It was a brisk morning in December when Bobby Thomas and his older brother Max Thomas were walking home from school and reminiscing about what they were planning on doing on Saturday night. “Hey Bobby, what should we do later?” asked Max. “I am not sure.” Replied Bobby. “I wonder if mom and dad will let us ride our scooters down the stairs.” Stated Max. “I don’t think they will let us do that.” Bobby chuckled “How about we go explore something?” Bobby asked. “I believe there is an abandoned house around here.” Max replied excitedly. “What? Why? I don’t think we are allowed in that house.” Bobby said in a scared tone of voice. “Who cares it will be fun and some even say that the house could be haunted, that ghosts roam the long corridors at

“I’ve told you a hundred times already you’re not getting a gun!” Mary scolded Morgan, her face reddening, and her eyes narrowing in frustration at having to repeat herself to him over and over again. She then dropped her Marlboro to the ground extinguishing it under her foot. “You see that, that’s what I think of your hopes of you ever get your hands on a firearm are. There’s all your hopes, squashed under my foot.” She continued bitterly as she ground the cigarette butt further into the pavement for dramatic emphasis.

What seemed like a normal day for Jeff Stanley, but little did he know there would be a terrorist attack. He went to work in the south tower when all the sudden there was an explosion at the north tower. He rushed to help others out when they got ordered to evacuate.

One morning Benny comes home from work and notices that Angela’s car is not in the driveway. Puzzled by this since she does not work and just stays home with the kids all day, he goes into their home and shouts for them. After calling for them for a while and no one answering, he runs up the stairs into their bedroom and sees a pile of papers sitting on their dresser. The first few papers on top the pile, were divorce papers. The one on the bottom was a note, written in Angela’s beautiful hand writing, which read, “Dear Benny; We had a wonderful relationship together, but I felt like we rushed too much into things. I bet if you would have proposed to me much later in the relationship this would have worked out better. But I took the kids and

It was just another day out on the farm in the middle of Illinois, were the only thing in sight were farm fields go on further than an human eye can see. When you look across the horizon the only thing you see is barns, two houses, one road, and farm fields. That is where Aaron Brown lives with his family. Where Aaron lives the closest school and town is about forty-five minutes away from his house.

"All Right, Pandora, I'm leaving", He sighed. "Oh, Pandora, Just remember: No matter where you come from or who are you, You're still have a mom and dad who loves you dearly", He added. The Father returned back to his bedroom while leaving his daughter to soak. He looked at his wife. "What are we going to do with Kimberly?" She asked. "I don't know, Janice, I bet that she'll calm down eventually", He answered. "You're right, Nobody can't stay mad forever", He agreed. Zackery held his nose in disgusted manner. "Janice, Please take a shower or a bath before you go to bed", He complained. "All Right, I'll go take a bath", She stated. She went into their personal bathroom and went into the bathtub. She got undressed and turn on the shower head. She grabbed the pink bar of soap and scrubbed herself. 'What am I gonna do with Kimberly?' She thought. ' I wish that I knew the answer', She

She loved him so much, or rather she thought she loved him so much that she was willing to risk her reputation and that of her family in order to save him. She didn't realize that she was going to end up losing her freedom in order to save his life. In the process of trying to pay back the debt, she had to give up all of the little luxuries that she was accustomed to and she even had to give up a fair amount
