“He has not; I forbade him. But I have had enough of it, and now I go to him, since he, being in service, cannot come to me. I intended to ask of you and my benefactress a refuge for this maiden while I went to Rashroff alone; but since you say that it is safe everywhere, I will take her. She is curious, the magpie, to see the world. Let her look at it.” “And let people look at her,” put in Zastar. “Ah, they would have nothing to see,” said the young lady, out of whose dark eyes and mouth, fixed as if for a kiss, something quite different was speaking. “An ordinary puss, nothing more than a puss!” said Sir Novoveski. “But if she sees a handsome officer, something may happen; therefore I chos

Or she might not even have a lover at all, she might just be all alone in her boring room reading an extremely cliché novel where the popular kid in school gets the nerd and the prince gets the palace maid, or where as the commoner who everyone hates, then the king of a kingdom caught sight of her one day and bam, they'd be in love and get married then live happily ever after. Cliché bunch of rubbish. I know about those kinds of books because my mum had been really crazy about them when she was still alive. She would carry around a different book daily, she could be reading in the kitchen while leaning against the counter and trying to prepare a pile of toast. Sometimes some of the toasts mi

--- Elsewhere… Nelly Couldn’t Finish the First Page Nelly sat in her room, sadness weighing heavily on her face. She felt as if Naomi had taken Adel from her completely. She stepped out, hesitant, and stopped at Naomi’s door. Her hand trembled as she reached for the handle… then slowly turned it. The room lit up. It was neatly arranged. On the table lay a book Naomi had been reading. She approached and picked it up. The title read: “Your Eyes Found Me – A Novel” She turned off the light and left.

We walk down the small hill the way men and women walk down small hills in small parks in Los Angeles on the mornings of the days the men and women the small hills are the small hills of are the kind of men and women who are the kind of men and women the small hills are the small hills of. The small silver tray is on the small table. The small shortbread is on the small silver tray. The small shortbread is the kind of small shortbread that the grandmother of the man the woman is the wife of used to make at Christmas in the small kitchen in Boston. The small shortbread is the kind of small shortbread that the woman the man the woman is the wife of made on the night before the night before the

THIRD PERSON Pov The cabin was the quietest place the maid had been in months. She sat on the bed and looked around the room and felt the absence of footsteps in the corridor outside, the absence of Konstantin's voice somewhere in the house, the absence of the tension that came from living in a space where you were useful but not safe. The room was small. The furniture was plain. The cook knocked and came in with the tray. The smell of the soup reached her before the woman had fully set it down. It was warm, and savory. Chicken, rice, vegetables and juice, everything was set out neatly on the small table beside the bed.

There are larger battles than desire. By the time I reached the northern ridge where my aunt lived, I had calmed enough to remember why I needed her. If anyone held the truth about my bloodline, it was her. Her cottage sat under the twisted boughs of a dead oak, the air thick with herbs and smoke. She was waiting for me, as though she had already known I’d come. Her eyes, pale and sharp like winter ice, fixed on me the moment I entered. “You look tired,” she said, her voice like gravel.

Ana and Ava were silently standing in the corner looking at the scene, their ma'am enjoying her breakfast and sirs looking at her for her attention. They waited and waited and waited but she didn't even glanced at them turning their mood sour and clenching their jaws they strode out of there. They never felt so disrespected and helpless, they didn't know why they were needing her attention but they knew they want her attention now. They always get what they wanted but first time they didn't get a girl's attention who was none other than their own little wife. Without having breakfast they left for their company. _______________

"She's old as the hills, but in her younger years, she didn't hesitate to take a switch to me or Beau. Masyn never did anything wrong in Mrs. Corkle's eyes-we 'corrupted that sweet girl.' Direct quote." "I bet you three were a handful." I leaned back in the pew. It wasn't comfortable, and the wood was unforgiving. "Not really. We were good kids." "What was it like growing up in a small town?" "I don't have anything to compare it to. I've lived here my whole life-in the same house on the same street. I bought it from my dad when he moved to Atlanta. Beau's and Masyn's parents live in the same houses, too. I guess it was like every country song ever recorded-we drank from garden hoses, drove o

I barely settled for a cup of flakes and milk that was already getting spoiled. With my black mini tight-skinned gown, I left the house off to Laurie's. Laurie not messaging me on my birthday got me worried and I had to check up on her. Laurie and I are best friends from high school. Though she's a year older and crazier. I became friends with her when she saved me from a bully. Then I was a weakling. We've been friends for so long that we don't hide secrets and we see each other as sisters. She and her mom treated me as family.

"Didn't I tell you that you're the only woman he loves deeply? One more reason I came here. I want to give this to you." She got stunned when the old woman suddenly handed her a familiar notebook that she was starting to recognize. To her surprise, it was the diary she owned way back in her high school days. The diary where she chronicled all her feelings to Thyago way back in her teenage days, the diary where it all began...
