Once upon a time, there lived a very sweet, pretty girl. Each day she would sit by her vase of roses and watch them. She paid attention to every little detail that changed. She noticed every petal begin to fade and droop, but one. She noticed the roses starting to die, but one. Each day [...]

How well was he displaying an indifferent passion for the melody—– “Me Voy …….”. Peeling the flesh off me. I hated it, but I had to bear it—– circumventing somehow. He was not the only one, there were even worst, Jhon…who would always wish and try to be Extra Close, in Rumba, while exploring me [...]

Adam takes a deep breath and finally speaks. “You need to leave him. If the only reason you’re staying with him is because of how he reminds you of me, then I need to point out to you that he isn’t me. He’ll never be me. And not only will he not be me, but [...]

“Yes Dog’s name is Junipr…please sir…”. I repeated in whispers to myself clinching the handset, as I sobbed, listening to disconnected and lamenting tone in the earpiece. The Line had gone dead.

It was a cold winter night. The harsh winds could be heard screaming at the top of their lungs. The blizzard was bizarre. Nothing could have withstood those chilly claws of icy frost. Deep in the heart of the warm cosy house of the Morgan’s, he was sipping a cup of hot chocolate from a [...]

Snowflakes started falling from the sky. It was a pleasant view. But Johnny thought it wasn’t. He was a 9 year old boy who enjoyed the summer time and not the winter time. Johnny glanced through the window at other kids that were sliding from the hills; either sliding by themselves or with the help [...]

LESSONS FROM MY BUTTERCUP When neighbours spot Buttercup and I, they just stare and they wonder. ‘Is she alright?’ I hear some of them whisper. Those that are used to the sight would just shrug and tell those asking or just seeing us for the first time that, ‘She is okay, only she has such [...]
