Let Them Watch Novels & Stories

In the photo, William looked kind and gentle, Cedric stood tall and handsome, Sabrina smiled brightly, Matt flashed a peace sign, and I stood at the very edge with a strained smile on my lips. I turned the frame face down, pulled up my suitcase, closed the door, and left. … The VIP lounge at the airport was quiet. The footage of the international tribunal's sentencing played on loop on the television mounted on the wall—Cedric, William, and the others were escorted into prison vehicles in heavy shackles. The screen showed in high definition how their once-proud heads were now buried low in shame. My new assistant sat across from me, watching the news and shaking her head. "Ms. Scott, these p

Three hundred yards. 00:23:12. The timer on the dashboard was really scary. "They are not trying to stop us " Sarah said. She was looking at the road and the mirror. "They are just following us. Why are they just following us?" "Because they do not have to hurt us " I said. The truth was really scary. "Julian is waiting for the car to stop working. He is watching us from his office. He will send his men to get us when the time is up."

"Which means they have no personal stake in what happens tonight beyond completing whatever task Elias assigned them before his capture." "Which was simply to watch," Caden said slowly. "Which was simply to watch," Zane confirmed. "And report." Caden looked out the window at the ceremony grounds, lanterns now glowing in the gathering dusk, pack members beginning to arrive, the full moon rising slowly toward its place in the sky. "Then let them watch," he said again. "And let them report exactly what they see." He turned from the window. "It is time," he said.

"The others, Tebogo, Thapelo, Bongani, Keagan, and Keanu are going to watch the house." MJ watched them carefully, her eyes assessing each one of them as if searching for something. "I'll take everyone." MJ said, her eyes trained on Lincoln. "I'll take everyone except for Lincoln, he can stay behind and watch the house." She touched her chin thoughtfully. "Or better yet, you take him wherever you go." "That's fine, and to top it off, I got you a driver." "MJ." Liam greeted as he walked in.

“We’re here to explore, little mouse. Trust in me, and I’ll guide you through it.” The way he spoke made my insides weak. “Yes, Sir,” I whispered. His eyes darkened, the corner of his mouth twitching. “Will they watch us?” “Yes, when everything is ready. Everyone who scans the screen on their walls can watch us, can watch whoever they want to watch. This is a public room. So even Conrad will see us.” I gasped, chewing on my lower lip. I couldn’t understand my emotions, but I knew something I couldn’t deny...I was excited.

"I don't want to watch anything. Have both of you finished your homework?" They nodded in unison. "And the tasks for your arts and crafts?" Another synchronized nod. "Did you finish the extra assignments the teacher gave?" Again, both nodded. Gale sighed inwardly. It seemed there was no reason to stop them from watching TV. Both kids excelled in their studies, never causing her worry. "Mommy, Joshua and I just want to watch Ivy. We won't argue anymore. We'll watch whichever one, as long as Ivy is in it! Right, Joshua?" Nicole said.

For six months I renovated the condo where my fiancé and I were supposed to begin our married life. Grant said he was buried in a project. My brother said he was always traveling. My best friend said something had come up at home. Not one of them had time to lend a hand. The night before I moved in, they covered my eyes and told me someone I would never guess had come back to warm the place for me. The door opened, and there was Serena Cole, a childhood friend I hadn’t seen in years, wearing my slippers and rushing at me with a smile. “Surprised?” I was. Until she said, offhand, “These past few days I couldn’t have managed without Grant helping me pick a mattress, Owen carrying my bags,

In my past life, my class cornered me on the school rooftop after our SAT. "Winnie wouldn't have jumped if you didn't rat us out!" "You ruined our chances to make it into Croma, the best college there is! We had a million staked on this!" With the class officer taking the lead, over a dozen pairs of hands pushed me at the same time. I could hear the howling in my ears as I fell, and they were all laughing in relief. When I opened my eyes again, I was alive and sitting in class on the day before our SAT. Winnie Ascott was standing up front, her phone screen projected on the whiteboard. She was presenting an app called the Ultimate Answer Sheet, with an electronic contract beside it. "

Grace said as she stood and blocked their view and prevented them from watching any further. "Hey, Mom, why are you blocking our view, I mean, aren't we supposed to watch the news on the television, I mean, at the end of the day, our teachers use to say, it's a good thing when we start developing interests to watch the news and not only cartoons at a young age and it shows how interested we are about the affairs of our country and city," Sandra the eldest daughter said. "Yes, exactly, Sandra is right, right now you can't stop our passion, Mom, we Suunto watch the news, I bet if Dad was here, he would support us," Lily, the youngest daughter said.

Let's end this. ***
