Novel & Cerita The New Toy

Raven snorted, "She needs the real thing. Plastic is going to feel more of a punishment then-" "If you find a good one it's not going to feel like plastic! It's going to feel like you have a dick in your coochie! I happen to know a place that-" "Of course you know a place." "Oh shut up you wanna be prude! We founded "Joy for Toys" together!"

My eyes had already caught the cabinet in the corner. It stood apart from the weapon racks, a plain steel locker with a simple combination lock, the kind used to catalogue items taken from prisoners or the dead. Curiosity — the same reckless curiosity that had gotten me this far and would likely get me killed eventually — pulled me toward it before caution could argue otherwise.

Besides maybe if they were split, I could convince my mom to be on my side the day I decided to come out. My mind inadvertently went to the new addition to my collection. My boy toy. He had such a full hair of dark hair, lush too. My hands sank into the lush strands when I grabbed it and he was so responsible to it too. Fuck. I loved grabbing him too, his body was toned, muscular in a way that made me want to lick him. And his eyes. He was always looking at me too, with those sparkly hazel eyes. Beautiful boy. My beautiful boy toy.

"I want to show you something. Our new home." He did not bother explaining where he had been all this time. My heart felt nothing—not anger, not sorrow. Just numbness. Wordlessly, I followed him into the car. He drove us to a luxury villa community in the suburbs. At the grand entrance, we ran into Ivy. She pulled up in a sleek red sports car, rolled down her window, and flashed a dazzling smile. "Joe, Belle—what a coincidence! I just moved in too. Right next door." I trailed after Joe into the so-called 'new home.'

THE BREAKING POINT—1 ~ANYA POV~ The toy was ridiculous. Not just expensive, which it obviously was based on the designer packaging and the fact that it had been delivered by a man in a suit instead of a normal delivery driver. But completely over the top—a remote-controlled dinosaur that was almost as big as Marcello, with realistic movements and sounds and probably more technology than my first car. Marcello was losing his mind over it in the living room, making the dinosaur roar and chase him around the furniture while he shrieked with joy.

We duck into the airport's massive shopping center, scanning the colorful aisles for inspiration. I've got to find Alexis something amazing. He's the cutest, and Andrei's adorable clone. “He's super into cars,” Andrei mentions. I smile thinking, 'What's something even more special?' I spot a sleek, futuristic toy car that catches my eye. It's a 1:18 scale model of the Lamborghini Sian, a limited-edition hybrid supercar. Andrei’s attention is drawn to a carefully curated selection of intricate K’Nex roller coaster sets. He picks up one of the larger sets. And yeah, he's sold on it.

Liam frowned at the Ironman toy. My stomach dropped. “What’s wrong?” I asked. “You don’t like them?” Liam shook his head. “Liana doesn’t like dolls. She likes boy toys. And I don’t like Ironman,” he added. “I like War Machine.” A lump settled in my throat so huge that I couldn't breathe for a second. This was supposed to be the first of many memories. I'd imagined their eyes lighting up as they clung to the boxes like treasures. Instead, I'd screwed it up by showing them that I knew nothing about them.

, she said. "Well?", Gavin asked again as he nodded his head towards the other items. Fernanda turned around and was amazed to see all the items Gavin brought, all in neutral colors so there would not be an argument over genders. There was a baby coat, a pram, a rocking chair comfortable enough for both mother and child, a bunch of toys and blankets too. "I figured you'd want to do more shopping, so I didn't get everything according to the lady in the shop", he said as he approached her from behind only to receive a huge hug from Fernanda who was already in tears.

His mouth opened in a little ‘O’. He gasped dramatically. He spotted it. A gun toy. Not a small one, but an expensive, flashy, multi-featured monstrosity that lit up, made sounds, vibrated, and probably could double as a night lamp. The kind made specifically to tempt children and break parents’ wallets. He sprinted to it and wrapped both arms around it. “MAMAAAAA! Look! This one...this one!! Pleassseeee!” Karline picked up the price tag.

Kane fell asleep as soon as he got into the car. After leaving the cafe, Regina asked Atlas to take them to Kingston Toys, a mall store that only sold a very complete and very large selection of toys. Kane seemed hesitant and refused several times when Regina asked him to pick any toy he liked as a birthday present. But Regina said she would be sad if Kane refused. So, Kane finally agreed and ran from aisle to aisle, choosing toys. He picked up a brick-built model of a Japanese city and a complex-looking wooden fighter plane.
