Short Stories

The First Snow

November ends with snowfall, little bites of frost falling upon your tongue. You hate and love it at the same time. It reminds you of the little blonde girl whose hair resembles the sheen of platinum more than gold. The snow falls on top of your head and into your eyes, before melting into water…

Insentient

Insentient, inorganic, A green rock lies in the midst of a beach. Hazel-green eyes behind the lens of a digital camera, A foggy glass with water droplets fanning inside. Time slows for her; for me it always remains the same, In this moment she thinks she is infinite, Not knowing that only me and her…

Signs of Winter

Bare trees, almost naked. Fallen leaves, crunched, and crushed to pieces, absolutely destroyed. Air coming out in white puffs. Sharp winds and chilly shivers; these are simply some of the beginning signs showing that, winter has begun. But what does Winter feel like? What does it look like? What does it smell like? What does…

Intergalactic

Do you ever want to crawl out your window as you pour honey down your throat, relishing in its sweetness flowing downwards? Do you ever want to describe the process of healing as if it’s like running away from the headiness of the aforementioned honey, its saccharine taste lingering on your breath as long as…

The Wager

Broken. That was how Marie felt. Shattered from the inside, her heart torn into two. One part begging her to not do this, the other severely reprimanding her, that she would not leave without doing this. Both parts, however, feeling heavy. She was at a crossroad.

Or perhaps it is a combination of qualities such as form, proportion, and even colour that simply delights the sight? Beauty, not unlike perfection, does not exist. At least, not by itself. It only exists in…

Cats and Cupcakes

It’s coming towards me! It wants my cupcake!” Ashley shrieked, as she held up her plate in the air, the cupcake sitting atop it daintily. “It doesn’t want your stupid cupcake!” Rose screamed, trying to grab the kitten and failing miserably, as it bounded away. The kitten in statement had previously leapt over the pillow,…

Just Ask Her

Are you free this evening? Lewis stared at his words on the glowing screen in front of him, which was a little too bright for him at this time of the night. His thumb hovered over the send button, but his mind was consumed with an inner turmoil. Why was he thinking so much? Why…

Footprints

She woke up expecting him to be laying beside her, cuddling as if his life depended on it, as he was prone to do. The very thought brought on a smile to her face. Instead, she woke up to the lack of a warm body beside her. Assuming he was sleeping facing the other side,…

Rain

Constant. The rain made a pitter patter noise against the window panes, and she briefly glanced at it before letting her attention fall back to the book in her lap. But her mood had been spoilt, if she was being truthful. She had been longing to listen to music ever since the start of the…
