“Mommy, why does that guy look so weird?” said a little girl looking frightened as I walked by. I hated looking this way, why did I have to be the only one with skin? I’ve never known why things turned out this way for me. Many people have told me that this is karma. But I’ve never understood what I did wrong that makes me deserve this. I didn’t do anything wrong, did I? I would see Nigel Osborn walking down the street almost everyday. Everyone wanted pictures with him because he was now one of

“Thank you, Dr. Lange. We’re sure you will do everything you can for our little girl,” Jerry said. For the next hour, the family waited. Finally, Dr. Lange entered the waiting room and said, “Ashley is going to be okay. She lost so much blood before she got to the hospital there was no way to save the baby. Does the father know she is in the hospital?” “Thank you, for your help. We talked to the father several weeks ago. He told my parents that he wanted to marry Ashley and take care of the baby

The dust from the ground hits me in the face shaking me awake “Jonah it is good to see you awake” I hear a familiar voice say the sun shines through the now open flap of my tent “White Eagle, what time is it?” I ask him covering my eyes “Its 6.00, time to move Jonah,” he says closing the flap “What do you mean time to move? The Man In Black is dead it’s time to sleep no move” I tell him looking at the other side of the tent “Yes that may be true but our sources tell us of

For as long as I can remember Halloween has been my favorite holiday. I remember as a child dressing up as my favorite Disney character or when I got too cool for princesses dressing up as the latest horror movie character. I remember going out with my parents to get candy or going to Halloween parties. But sitting here thinking about it it almost seems like a lifetime ago. I turn away from the car window to which I had been staring out at the sunset since getting in the car and slowly reach my

Elevator Disaster The grey elevator door quickly snapped in front of my eyes. I knew it, I was trapped and all alone while my family was standing on the other side of this rusted elevator door. My family was on their way to get our suitcases and on the next plane to Florida when I got myself into this ‘being stuck in the elevator mess’. Of course I didn't do it on purpose I was just doing what normal teenagers do, staring at their phone when they are supposed to be paying attention but usually

Really it depends on belief and religion. For example, if you're a Christian, then the belief is that the prickly leaves represent the crown of thorns Jesus wore when he was crucified. The berries represent the blood that he shed, because of the crown of thorns. I know that's the right one but since I like to make up my own stuff that's not how it goes in this story. Once there was a girl and a boy. The boy's name so Chucky. The girl’s name I'd Carrie. They were extremely good friends. More

The back door of the moving truck slammed shut, making me slightly jump gasping in surprise. I turned in my seat and look at the house, I've lived my whole life in. Gloomily I stare remembering all the happy and sad times I've had here. "come on Kate stop thinking such sad thoughts the new house is going to be great," I said clapping my hands over my face. The cab driver turned the ignition key, and the cab rumbled to life. We start rolling forward down the street behind the moving truck. Watching

It was a big lie. All those stories, I believed he was gone forever. All those hours I spent crying alone in my room, reading about what people thought had happened to my brother… It all started about two months ago, Jake would be gone every night, who knows where. He would tell my parents he's working night shifts at his job at the diner. I knew he wasn't there but I never bothered to ask where he went all those nights. One night, Jake never came back home, not even the next afternoon. My mom called

Present day While walking through the lush green grass of the retirement home, many thoughts began to swirl in my mind. I started thinking of the years that have flowed by me like a bullet slicing through the wind. All the years of fun, enjoyment, sadness and grief. All the moments of desire and hope I can still feel until this day. My experiences in life through the years have helped me to view the world today; in a new perspective. Some part of me wishes right now that I was raised up in this

Tomorrow you must leave. I don't want to hear any stories. Yes. There won't be any. I'm very sorry. I hope... - we'll work well together from now. - Very well. - You do know that you'll be okay, right? - You'll be okay too. - Captain, Nkunzi has escaped. - No! No, man! Njomane... when did you get out? I've missed you. Where's Nosipho? She's with her boyfriend. That means she won't be back anytime soon. Hey! Where are you going? Where are you going? Where are you going? Where are
