Weekly Contest #347
She grew up in a world where everyone around her owned a big car, a nice house, wore nice clothes and seemed happy. Her neighbor would always tell her about the trips they took abroad—Paris in the spring, Switzerland in the winter, Thailand for the beaches. Ever since her childhood, she made it her dream to have each one of those things. She would daydream about how happy she would be in a big home, moving from one big room to another, hosting parties. She chuckled with joy as she thought about it. It was like this grand movie her mind was p...

The breeze touched her face like a soft hand. Leila opened her eyes. The table fan circled beside her, humming. A Knock. She jerked upright on the couch, heart racing. The delivery bag sat outside her door. She brought it in, ate standing at the counter, threw the container away. When she first arrived a few years ago, the idea of living alone thrilled her. A place of her own. Freedom. After the pandemic, her company went remote. At first, she loved it—chores between meetings, naps in the afternoon, her favorite TV shows always available. No...
Weekly Contest #322
Epitome of perfection, is what they call her. Always on time for her workout, her meetings, her yoga sessions. “Wow”, is what people say when they look at her. Well-manicured nails, immaculately dressed, hair perfectly set. “Good morning, Susie” is what she looks forward to hearing every morning. Meetings, presentations, conferences keep her busy. Once in a while, she looks out of the window of her corner office and smiles. “I have worked hard to get here I deserve the attention”. She likes being at work and observing people around her. “Hi ...
