Who are You?

Weekly Contest #55

Fluctuations of dark and light, I opened my eyes and saw a paper that read “I will kill you” written in blood. I don’t know where I am. The room is full of mess, many statues in the showcase were broken, blood strains here and there, I had my hand covered with a white cloth which had blood, I opened the knot and saw a cut in my hand. As my shirt and pant had shades of blood, I took a dress from the shelf and wore it. The dress is perfect for me. I took whatever I saw and went out to figure out what is happening.   “Jade, jade!! get...

Move On Guilts, Way to Peace

Weekly Contest #50

"Bye bloke", said to my friend and started walking towards my residence. There is a small market which looks link a holocaust, it takes about 10 min to cross a 100-meter road. I always make a strike to my mama's brain, that I turned 20 last summer, "what matters, if you get robbed in that market, be careful while crossing it", she shouts in return. That incident strikes in my head whenever I cross that market road, I had that strike now. My eyeballs start to roll to the left and to the right, to check if there is any misfortune waiting for m...

Weekly Contest #44

A bad day!! just sitting in the house doing nothing for a month and got tired of nothing, to say it short, hardly in the state of f*****. The environment was not bad as it was a rainy day in summer.

The weather changed the option to sleep mode from power nap mode. In to the dream… I was ju...
