"What did you dream this time?" asked his mother, taking over the seat next to him. "A girl crying in the corner of the room with sad cries," Damaresh replied, looking straight ahead. Looking at the beautiful flow of the river was quite soothing. Silence. Both were busy with their thoughts.

"I'd leave, but who would prepare the dinner? You know Leah is a terrible chef, and I'm starving." Mike yelled out loud. "Hey! I'm not a terrible cook!" Leah shut him down. "Oh, no! Yes, you are; you can't even make good mac & cheese." He retorted with a snide remark.

It was a normal day at MY SIX headquarters, the world's top intelligence agency in central London. Inspector Mark was busy reading a book with his legs stretched out in his chair and on the table. Suddenly, the office door opened without a knock. And a girl's bra was thrown on the inspector's table. The inspector turned startled, set the book aside and hastily put his spectacles on his eyes which were on the table. “What is this behavior Mark?” He was surprised by Mark's sitting style. Mark had nothing to say, so he remained silent.

I don’t want to think about her, or how I’m still here, trapped in this place with no way out. The door opens, and two men enter. One gestures for me to follow, his face unreadable. I can’t help but hesitate, but I get up anyway. My body is weak, aching, but I keep moving. There’s nothing else I can do. They lead me down the hall, the lights overhead flickering. The smell of food hits me, and my stomach twists. It’s not hunger. It’s fear. When we reach the dining room, I freeze. The table is set with every kind of food you can imagine—meat, bread, fruits—everything you’d think would be a gift. But I know better. Nothing here is a gift. Not from him.

This is your name, D-a-v-i-d. The boy happily observed Anne and David standing beside each other, holding a branch and learning how Anne wrote letters. They happily wrote letters until they noticed the smell of burning in the air and remembered their lunch. The grilled chicken is on fire!

The sense of betrayal cut deep, leaving her feeling like an orphan in a world where trust had been callously broken. "You made me an orphan. How heartless can you be," Shanaya's voice rose in a crescendo of accusation, her eyes ablaze with a fiery anger that burned through the facade of deceit. The realization that the man she had trusted had orchestrated such a deceitful scheme left her reeling, her innocence shattered by the harsh truth of his greed.

My first day at work with Lala barging into my room with commands before I got my bearings. I walked into the cafe in the clan where the employees normally gather to eat. As soon as I stepped in, everywhere went mute and cold just like my mother's graveyard. The silence discomforting and a physical weight. Lala gripped my hands as she pulled me to the kitchen where the head cook and three other maids assisted her as they prepared in frantic agility. The air thick with the savory smell of roasted chicken and scent of different type of juices creating a swirl of aromas in my head.

I crouched down beside my suitcase. It was the same suitcase I had taken with me to the desert five years ago. It was the same one I had brought back.
