Weight of Words Untold
The day I decided to file for divorce, Dean Potter couldn’t wait to draft the divorce agreement.
Five years ago, he had been forced to marry me, and now he was finally free.
On the day we were finalizing the divorce, Dean arrived with his new flame, radiating delight mixed with a hint of mockery. “Veronica Byrd, look at you—you’re miserable.”
I watched his figure fade into the distance, my vision blurring.
Miserable?
In the next life, it wouldn't happen again.
A Few Hundred Poppies
sadiasoria
Aditi and West hate each other. They bicker, they flirt, and are possibly a little in love.
Blotching the hot new guy's shirt with chocolate-mixed spit is probably not the best idea of a revenge, but Aditi soon discovers that she doesn't regret it one bit. Because despite being a jerk, West too knows what it's like to be brown, Muslim and falling apart in an all-white high school, and when he gets entangled in Aditi's struggle to tackle a debilitating trauma and a really, really loud Bangladeshi wedding, the fledgeling love-hate relationship will leave her either healed or heartbroken.
Or pretty dead, because an outbreak of crimes is gripping her quaint little town in fear, and the gorgeous flirt she's falling for has his fair share of ugly secrets.

SSSHHH: LAST WORDS OF A KILLER
BLOOM JAY
"Pick up…. pick up… please" When the call did not get through, I burst into tears. The killer was now banging the door violently.
“Inspector Kenneth speaking” Uncle Ken’s voice came through and right at the same the killer made a whole in the door by his continuous banging.
"Uncle Ken, he's here, he is going to kill me…." I stated this in a panicked, horrified tone.
“Zara, darling, we were going to have some fun why did you called the police?” he said in a cold tone bringing out his silvery knife.
A shudder rushed down the spine. However, I maintained my composure.
"You are over now," I said, trying to mask my terror.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, not yet…." He answered and raced towards me.
What happens next???
The Gap in Our Words
My mother-in-law could not understand me.
Before my business trip, I repeatedly told her not to touch anything in my study, but she mixed up the contract I needed. As a result, I lost a million-dollar order and was fired from my company.
To make up for her mistake, she promised she would take care of my child and help me find another job.
I froze my milk, labeled everything with notes, and gave her detailed instructions on timing and measurements.
However, when my baby ended up in the hospital, I found out that she had thrown out all the milk and fed my baby expired formula instead.
Even worse, she fed my baby peanuts behind my back, causing my baby to suffocate and die.
Afterward, she wailed, "That was my granddaughter! How could I not care? If I could, I'd die with her..."
My husband slapped me, shouting, "My mom worked so hard to take care of the child, and you want to drive her to her death? She's an old woman. It's not easy for her!"
My sister-in-law came over too, calling me ungrateful and blaming me for treating an elderly woman badly. She claimed I deserved to be childless and alone.
However, they did not know how many times I had stopped my mother-in-law from causing trouble and harm to them.
I was driven to depression by them and eventually sent to a mental institution, where I was tortured to death.
If I had the chance to do it again, I would protect my child and myself and stop preventing my mother-in-law from causing chaos for others.
I would watch her bring equal destruction to each one of them!

Best Man
Marvy-dee
There's nothing more shattering than hearing that you're signed off as a collateral to marry in order to clear off your uncle's stupid debts. "So this is it" I pull the hoodie over my head and grab my duffel bag that is already stuffed with all my important stuff that I need for survival.
Carefully I jump down my window into the bushes below skillfully. I've done this a lot of times that I've mastered the art of jumping down my window. Today is different though, I'm not coming back here, never! I cannot accept marrying some rich ass junkie.
I dust the leaves off my clothe and with feathery steps, I make out of the driveway. A bright headlight of a car points at me making me freeze in my tracks, another car stops and the door of the car opens.
There's always only one option, Run!
