Weekly Contest #328
The knight descended from the horse and stroked his companion’s head with love and trust. While doing so, he noticed his hand tremble slightly. “Looks like I’m a little scared after all,” he murmured to his steed with a nervous smile. The horse, as if it understood its master’s fear and anxiety, nodded. The knight smiled. He untied his sword with its sheath from the saddle and swung it over his shoulder. He took the crossbow and placed it over his back and tied the quiver with bolts over his left thigh. There was a small rug sack tied to the...
Weekly Contest #303
The windswept gently under her wings as she landed softly on the branch of a tree. The morning sun made her pure white feathery wings glitter like a chandelier and made her pale skin glow. The tree was in the middle of a park, surrounded by people who were walking and exercising. People usually can't see angels unless the angels were willing to reveal themselves to the mortals. Rachel was not planning to reveal herself to any of them because it was against the code, and she knew it very well. However, she was here for one man whom she had fa...
Weekly Contest #292
A black Mercedes made an acute right turn in a narrow country road. Headlights lighting up the dark path ahead. It was late February, but still, the sun sank into the horizon before five this evening. Moreover, today it felt like there was barely any sunlight the whole day. “Are you sure we are on the right path?” Eve worried. “Huh,” grunted Dave, irritated. This was the fifth time she had asked this question, and to be truthful, he was not sure. The GPS had been taking them in circles, and this God-forsaken inn was nowhere to be f...

10:01 p.m.Isle of WightThe corner café that serves coffee, juices, milkshakes, and some light bites was run by a skeletal crew – the young chef Leon (also the owner) and a very pregnant waitress, Alice, who serves the tables and occasionally makes the milkshakes. It sat facing the ocean right next to the beautiful and ancient Shanklin Chine. This wooded coastal ravine is filled with waterfalls and lush vegetation, attracting many tourists daily. And this thankfully helps the little café to find its customers even though it has been choked by...
Weekly Contest #286
The house was dark. The silence was deafening. The darkness slowly faded as the sun rose and let its ray peek through the window curtains and lit the room up. And the silence was replaced with birds chirping outside as the study room door creaked open. Another day came by, and I was hoping that today might be the day someone would come and take care of me.“Good morning,” I heard a voice call out. It was the husband as he walked into the room.“Good morning, baby,” a voice replied. It was his wife as she headed into the kitchen. He sat on his ...
Weekly Contest #284
“You should go somewhere this Christmas.”My friend’s voice echoed through my mind as I sat on the edge of my bed, contemplating. He had a long talk with me last evening about my mental well-being, and he repeatedly asked me to leave the town for a few days and go somewhere. But how could I? My mind, heart, and soul were still trapped here with her memories. This will be the first Christmas in many years I will be spending it without her. The thought made my heart race, and panic started to set in. “It will do you some good,” my friend s...
Weekly Contest #283
He pulled his car into an empty alleyway hoping in this heavy snow laden street parking was permitted on this busy Christmas eve. Before getting out of the car he pondered whether he would need his laptop or should just go in with a novel. He had about an hour to kill and didn’t know whether he wanted to get some work done or just spend some time catching up on his reading, which he knew was lacking a lot. At the end he decided on neither and just got out of the car with his airpods in his ears and played his favourite Christmas tunes. ...
