Nickel X Balloon Novels & Stories

“Look, I have been running booths for over ten years. I know how many balloons have been hit.” “Actually, he hit fourteen.” I gasped as I rushed forward to point the screen at the guy. “I hit nineteen and prior to that, there weren’t any balloons missing. There is a total of a hundred and three balloons. With the ones I hit and the ones he hit, there are still sixty-five balloons that haven’t popped. Including the five he already popped, it is a total of thirty-eight. Which means we both hit nineteen each.” I replayed the video to let him see for himself. “It is basic math.”

My mother-in-law asks, looking at me with a face. “Yes, I want people to take balloons, and no balloons that don’t float, they have to be balloons with helium gas to float, I want each arrangement to have blue, gold, white, and transparent balloons, exactly four balloons in each arrangement” I explain and I look at the team that will organize everything and continues. "My Allison is expecting quadruplets and the balloons are to represent our growing family, I put four babies inside my wife,” I say looking at people, yes I'm cool and I know how to make babies. “What a beautiful four balloons, one for each baby...” Mom says smiling at me.

Nicole fired a few more shots, causing bang after bang as the balloons burst. Seeing this, the owner's eyes widened. 'That first shot might have been luck. But for each consecutive shot she had placed since then, I'm convinced it's not luck anymore.' Before he knew it, Nicole had destroyed twenty balloons, and that was when he sat down, "Lady, I see you've shot down twenty. I'm telling you that it's better to not push your luck. A medium-sized plushie will do. If you keep going, you'll have to pay me money if you lose."

He arranged the game board nailed to the wall, with Sixteen balloons in bright reds, blues, greens, and yellows were pinned in neat rows of four on a wooden board. “You get a teddy bear depending on the color of balloon you pop. If you pop the red you get the smallest doll, if you pop yellow, you have the small doll, pop green and you have the medium sized doll and pop blue and you have the biggest doll available. Each round cost one dollar.” the man explained, handing Damon a four set of small arrows. Damon took them with a slight nod, his gaze narrowing on the balloons. His stance, the way he straightened his shoulders, it looked he was ready to ace the game. Nothing would’ve prepared me f

"Leila wanted this hide-and-seek game to be fair, so you are not allowed to join them. You should blame Donkey for trying to push her too far and betraying her first." Jae picked up the inflating gray balloon from his pouch. When its size exceeded his fist, he let go of that balloon. * Fffhhwwhheee... * The balloon flew straight towards Undre, with the squealing sound of friction between it and the air. As it approached the target, that man hurriedly grabbed his trusty knife and stabbed the balloon. * POP!!! * That grey balloon bursts and causes loud explosions. The bombing balloon's strong wind shockwaves shake the entire bridge.

"Mia, are you sure you're not carrying twins in there? You're positively enormous!" Mia rolled her eyes, used to Nick's playful banter. "Thanks for the vote of confidence, Nick." Claus stepped in. "Leave Mia alone, Nick. She's beautiful, and the baby is healthy." "I didn't say the opposite," Nick said before he vanished. Mia and Claus shared a weird glance and they burst into laughter Mia and Claus, surrounded by their friends and Carol, stood by the large box of balloons. Together, they pulled the string, releasing a flurry of balloons into the sky.

"I wasn’t blaming her." "Uncle Joe, give these stink bombs to Aunt Coco. If anyone bullies her, she can use the stink bombs to blow them up." Joseph looked at the plastic balloons in her hand that would expand with just a squeeze, and coldly refused, "No, you shouldn't stop playing with these things." Xavia glanced at Natalie as if trying to say that Joseph still cared about her. Natalie rolled her eyes in anger. 'What a scheming bitch!' "You can give her something else. These toys that rapidly inflate and explode through a chemical reaction can be dangerous and could harm Chloe."

The stuffed animals beckoned to me with their soft fur and adorable eyes, while the shelves of colorful building blocks promised endless possibilities. I made my way towards the section adorned with balloons, the vibrant colors catching my attention from afar. The shelves were lined with balloons of all shapes and sizes, eager to bring smiles to children's faces. My fingers danced across the latex surface as I searched for the perfect ones. I wanted them to be cheerful and full of life, just like Zara's radiant spirit. After careful consideration, I settled on a bouquet of multicolored balloons, each one holding a promise of happiness.

He places the balloon in front of Nikki and me and hands us two pins. Everyone counts down and we both close our eyes and pop the balloon. Blue powder comes out and Charles cheers. “No!” Charles screams. “Somebody owes me a Ferrari!” X laughs and high-fives my wife. I facepalm myself and laugh, I was happy either way. The next one will be a girl. God, please let it be a girl. Charles pulls out two sets of keys. “Lucky for you bozos I was prepared,” he hands over both the keys to Nikki and X.

We saw a young teenager handing out fancy balloons to some cheerful children. “Look mom! The balloons are pretty!” Iteoluwa pointed. People weren’t too much in the hallway, just few walking in and out of several stores in the mall. “Excuse me..” an unfamiliar voice said behind us. We looked back to see the teenager holding balloons. “The balloons are free gifts from our store to the children.” She gave iteoluwa a yellow balloon with ‘pretty girl and lots of stars’ imprinted on it. “Thank you.” Iteoluwa swirled around and the balloon went flying in the air but she held on to the tiny thread attached to it.
