Dad, I need to talk to you, announced Shameka. Honey, I’m really busy right now. Can it wait?” “Actually, Dad, it’s already waited for 13 years. I think we are way overdue for this conversation.” “Wait a minute,” responded Dad. “I really don’t like being talked to like that. What’s your problem?” “My problem is that I’m not getting any support from you and Mom,” Shameka yelled as she walked across the room and prepared to slam the door. “STOP RIGHT THERE, young lady. You will not talk to me that way and you will not walk away.” Dad paused and then calmly asked “Please, will you tell me what’s bothering you? Obviously, there’s something rather important. What do you mean that we don’t support you” “OK, Dad, I’m sorry,” apologized Shameka? It’s

"Em..." he pants. "Em, what is up with you? Why did you leave?" I don't say anything and look down at my shoes, noting that I was crying. "Emilie Nielsen, answer me. This isn't like you, Kultaseni." He cups my chin, forcing me to meet his gaze. Blue-gray eyes meet blue-green, and I break. "Because I didn't want you to hate me! I didn't want to ruin your career here in Boston by distracting you. I talked to Farrell and my contract ends Monday. Let me go, Rask. Its best for both of us." I try to push past him, but he holds me back. "Stop lying to me. You and I both know you can't possibly be a distraction because A: I love you and B: we're both always traveling. What's the real reason?" Sighing in defeat, I mumble"... Jag väntar." He sighs in exasperation. "You know I don't speak Swedish." "I'm expecting!" I blurt out. Tuukka's eyes widen. "Y-you don't mean expecting as in-" he stops when he sees the look on my face and takes a step back. "Voi hyvä jumala... You're... When?" I take a shaky breath and manage to wheeze out an answer. "Your birthday. I found out a couple days ago." Tuukka pulls me to his chest and laughs. "And you think I hate you for this?" I look up, extremely confused and look him in the eyes. "But-" "Never doubt my feelings for you. Rakastan sinua, Emilie and I always will." He then leans down and kisses me. I pull away first, placing my forehead against his. "Jag älskar dig." Tuukka kisses the top of my

“Why didn’t you come find me? Why didn’t you fight for me?” She asked, wiping my tears and letting her tears fall down her face until I wiped them again. “I did try, I tried every damn day up until my mother made me leave to go to college. I tried fighting for you but he, he threatened me, I sold my drum set’s for you. All four of them.” I whispered and she hugged me. “Alright, I need to go talk to my boss about letting me get the rest of the day off and having somebody serve us.” She said and she kissed me one more time. “Oooohhh I think they’re getting back togetherr” Caum sang and she replied with “Shut it asian boy.” and with that she went into a room and left Calum in a bad mood for the rest of the time we were

I sit up and wipe the sleep from my eyes as my Innovative says “Good morning Ms.Venus Wilder.” “Good Morning Innovative. “ I say in my kindness manner. I was still kind of upset about waking up considering that I had just got comfortable closing my eyes since the dream I had earlier.”Breakfast is being in the assembly room and the lunch room. Would you like to eat in your room, 220A, or would you like to eat with your fellow colleagues?” he says. “I would like to eat in my room today.” I say not feeling like dealing with anyone except Noah. “What would you like to eat today Ms.Venus Wilder?” “Hmm, I’ll just take a bowl of Captain Crunch, an apple cinnamon nutri grain, and some orange juice please” I say. “I will be right back with your order,” he zooms away as I grab the telephone. “Telephone” I call out. “Yes” a british female accent speaks back to me. “Please call Noah Wilder room 222A” I say. “Calling Noah Wilder room 222A” she says.

As I walk down the street to my apartment someone unexpectedly pops out of a bush all scratched up and dirty. “Whoa! Are you alright? You look like you just got beat up pretty good,”I surprisingly said. She looks at herself while saying “Yeah just fine,I found a cat and thought it was a good idea to pet him. As you can see it wasn 't. But i’m fine!” I say “Alright then,wanna come to my apartment, you look like you could need some water.” She shakes her head and sighs “No I gotta go but nice meeting you, how about we meet up here tomorrow after school?” I nod then wave.

So you were born here and then at 1 years old your parents moved to that tiny town in the middle of nowhere to get rid of all the people.” Alexia snapped, “What.” Grandma continued, “ When they moved we had a deal that when you turned 15 that they would move back so I could start teaching you how to take control over our business after I step off the set. So when they died in the crash I sent these two up there because I knew them really good and they always wanted to have kids. So I told them when you're turned 15 they would bring you up here and I would tell you everything.” Alexia groan, “So let me see here I am 15 and suppose to take over some family business that I don’t even know what I have to do. Then why haven’t I been told anything about it and why I have never seen you guys in my life?” Grandma said, “ Yes and here let me tell you our family business and why everyone at school wants to be your friend.” Alexia sighed, “ Okay let's hear it.” Grandma started, “ Okay so you know how there are royals here and how you saw your full name on that royals book. Well you are suppose to be the new Princess.” Alexia gasped, “ What and how is this possible.” Grandma said, “ Well you see your parents moved away so you can have a normal life before you turned 15, but they died and could not tell you so I am doing that for them and now you can get to know me.” Alexia said, “ Okay then when do I start because I always wondered why mom and dad kept me in private schools and always watch me close outside.” Grandma recalled, “ Well your training will start tomorrow right after school and don’t tell anyone at school if they

They had both been working on dinner together. "What's the point? That's more of Aki and Mitsuru's thing then mine." He says and continues to stir the pot of curry in front of him. Minako looks down. "But I would like having you there, senpai. We could meet up in the halls in between classes, skip a few every now and then to hang out with each other. Wouldn't it be fun?" He can see the happiness in her face and doesn't want to disappoint her. "Yeah I guess it could be fun." He says. "But still, I don't even know if they'd let me back in. I'm not exactly a straight A student." Minako smiles to him. "You don't know until you try!" She waves the knife that's in her hand at him as she speaks. "Jeez! Careful with that. I swear Minako." He sighs as she just smiles up at him. "You trying to get me killed?" She laughs and smiles. "Of course not senpai!" He shakes his head. "You're going to get yourself killed if you keep up stunts like

is it?” “I love you.” said Angelica. “I love you too.” then she left out the room. Angelica left out behind her. David walked in with two bags, then said, “How about Chinese food tonight.” “Good, I’m starving, Angelica go and get Mom so she can get her something to eat.” Angelica went to the back, Marie was stretched out laid across the bed sleeping, Angelica softly whispered, “Mom, David is back and he brought us some Chinese food, come on so you can get you something to eat.” Marie got up, walked into the kitchen and fixed her something to eat. While they were eating, Simone said, “Mom, be careful when you and David go get the rest of your stuff.” “I’ll be fine.” “Mom, Can I go with you and David tomorrow?” said Angelica. “No it wouldn’t

As I was trying to conceal my identity in hopes of getting out of a very, very long conversation with my boss, I ran into a pole, yes a pole, and guess who helped me up? My boss, which led to a conversation with him that lasted a record breaking forty-five minutes. When the conversation finally came to a close, I realized that I had lost her. But I didn’t give up hope, because I shad just seen her walk into a Rue21 store. So I ran across the street, and in the process nearly getting run over by a moped. Finally, I walked into the Rue21 store, just as she was about to walk out. I reached out, grabbed her arm, and said, “where’s my money!” Then, she said, “what money, I don’t have any money”! Say what? We both dissolved into a fit of laughter, and she said, “Hello Em, how are you”? I said, “I’m good, how about you”? She replied, “I am great, I’m spending some money I inherited from my aunt Gertrude.” In my head I was thinking, that makes so much more sense! After a moment, I added, “I’m glad you remembered the way we used to greet each other back in high school.” Laughing, she added “Yes, looking back, I always laugh at how silly that was!” “Do you want to get some coffee and have some time to chat”? I asked. In reply, she said, “I’d love to, but I have to go and be with my husband,

Mary was put together fairly well. Her hair perfectly curled to a T. Dressed for a wintery weekend in the big city. The red beannie showcases her flawless brown eyes. But yet she scurries. Dragging her suitcase frantically through the airport. People turn to look at her, but not for the reasons you would think. She trips spilling all the belongings of her purse, in panic quickly starts to pick them up.“Oh here let me help you with that” says a rather attractive man with a thick Australian accent as he bends down to assist her. “Thank you so much,” as the two stand up, “I’m in a real big hurry , about to miss my flight!” She uneasily proclaims as she stands up to lock eyes with the man. “Thank you again!” Mary yells as she turns and runs to

“I am so so sorry sir! Are you ok sir? I am so so sorr-.” “It is quite alright! What is your name young lady and why would a sweet girl like you be crying?” the man interrupted. “M-my name is Nya Neur. My family was murdered by a man in all black. Tears started creasing my eyelid. “I am alone and with no home and I have no one to turn t-.” “Nya? Would you like a hug? I know I am a stranger but you look like you need a hug right now,” the man

A weak whine of protest leaves my throat as I try to pull you tighter to me; to keep you with me. "No," I cry, "no." Shoving at the bodies that are surrounding me, suffocating me. "Go away," I sob. "Don't take him away." My baby boy, my fiancé, just mine. The ring covering your delicate finger glints from the sunlight pouring through the curtains. Only a week away and you'd have been Mr. Caine.

‘‘Hello, Kelly! Haven’t seen you for a long time! How’s going today?’’ ‘‘Not bad! What about you, Sarah?’’ Kelly responds, with her smile and tiring face a little bit. “Good. I rest from work today, so I need a look what I need to buy now. Are you the same, and you still work at a computer company, right?’’ “No, I have resigned for two years. I work at home now.” “Why? Don’t you like your previous job?” Sarah confuses in it. “No.” Kelly continues, “I got married two years ago. I just want to take care of my husband that works in an international trading company, and take care of my half-year-old daughter.” “Really?” Sarah surprises, “Congratulations!” They hug each other. “Glad to see you again, but I need to go. Have a good day Kelly! Stay in touch!” “You too!”
