Keen-eyed Monkey Business

Keen. I have to been quick minded and sharp throughout majority of my life. The same can be said with my partner in crime; a capuchin monkey who's also named Keen. We have been doing our partnership for a good while now. Since the day we met the two of us were thick as thieves, literally and figuratively. All in efforts to gather enough money for ourselves, the loan I will have to owe to Mr. W., and my daughter's treatment.Keen and I have been out in the streets of Las Vegas, performing our skills, either in the arts or deception. I would pl...

The Endless Hallway, Chapter II

It's been several days since I have been here at the Endless Hallway. I don't know how long I can take the silence here. It's like walking through a library only expect there was no books nor people, just doors on either side. I can't count how many doors I went through, but I can sure enough tell you of the worlds I have been. There was a time I came across some sort of ritual of college students. I had to exit so fast, I didn't want to know what they were conjuring up. It all looked unholy and I won't be participating that anytime soon or ...

We M.E.T. the Sprung Elephants

"Come on, Eva, I mean Evan, we might miss them," called my youngest sibling: Tina as she as well as my older sister (Maya) flew on ahead of me. I swear sometimes my triplet sisters can get the best of me. I lifted myself up with my own wings and soon enough, came right before them two. We flew through that enchanted forest like it was on the back of our hands. Maya showed off her skills by twirling around, doing corkscrews and loops. She of course had the biggest grin on her face while doing so. Meanwhile Tina clapped for applause of Maya's ...

Twice the Fool

"This is going to be a hot one today," I said as I grabbed my rack talking to my cow. Qwynn responded with a light moo as I hoist on a strip to a plough. Different day, sameo routine. We went at it through the field as we made our daily job and routine. But man, was I sweating after a good twenty minutes. Even Qwynn wasn't having it at first but after a couple of slips of waters, we persevere. We were a natural unit, her and I. I knew Qwynn since she was a calf and instantly I saw greatness in her. We've been friends ever since l, and there...

Life's A Blur

Time went fast by me, quite figuratively and literally. Everything and everyone around me all became a blur as I stood there in one place. It is worth noting that this ain't my first time seeing this unfold. In fact, I have been doing this so much, that a special and secret organization called the Watchful Dozen had to intervene the last time. And did I listen? Obviously not. Do I care? Somewhat. But a part of me wanted to go back to the time where I met Carie before Jasper had to swoop up and take her for himself.Carie has been such a dear ...

Otterly Altered

I woke up finding Slick 47 licking and nudging his head against my face. Sometimes this outstanding otter acts like a puppy and kitten at the same time, I swear."What just happened?" I said to my otterly friend as I found myself on the cold floor of my lab of a backyard shed. I don't know how long I have passed out but the last thing I could remember was giving Slick treats of which he was excited for. I also can remember that he gave me a love bite that caused me to bleed a little bit. He was very apologetic about it, all of which I admire ...

Marching Bard

'Finally, peace and quiet...' I said to myself after my twins and wife have passed asleep. As much as I love Litick, Hilda, and Aiamada, there's been moments I feel like I can't have time for myself. In my household, there's always: "Dad, can we do something together, just you and me?", or "Daddy, let's go play," or "Jorfy, do this for me." It's always something of someone asking more out of me, and I'm just tired. So much so, I want just to be myself for once and now's that time. After a full hour and no sleep on my part, I decided to quiet...

The Unreliable Father of the Year

"The nerve of him," I said to myself out loud as I drove to pick up my son that Micky was supposed to do. I placed my left hand on the door while my right hand held on the steering wheel. Frustrated, my knuckles turned white as I thought about Micky's antics. I can't believe I fell in love with him so deeply that we had a child together and now we are in a separation after a whole year. Our son, Colsen, is the only saving grace out of all of this. He's growing up to be a sweet boy while his father can be a complete ass! I've been calling M...

Janet's Old Place

I told myself countless of times that I'll never come back here but here we are. Got no choice. It's something I have to do. Still can't believe they are releasing my good-for-nothing mother. After everything she has put me through, I should have been the one to hold the key until my last dying breath. I walked unto the patio and before I know it, I knocked on the door. This was the place. The place where my mother torture me. Either being physical, emotional, spiritual, mentally, what ever which way you place it, she abused me at this hou...

reciproCATion

"Trevor!" my mother yelled out of nowhere. I was playing with my stuffed Pokemon in my room, considering I was grounded from any video games, including my GameBoy. Currently I was battling with my Charizard against a wild Snorlax. I was just about to catch it when my dear mother called. Without leaving my spot, I shouted back: "Yes, mom. What is it?" I really wanted to catch this wild Snorlax. He literally has no health points left and my Charizard was getting tired by the second. I needed to get this Pokemon. Just when I was about to thro...

Otterly Destructive

“I surely hope that’s everything,” I said to myself as I was walking back from the grocery store in my hometown of Galveston, pulling it all from a wagon. I needed to get more food supply for the little guy. He’s been eating practically anything that I feed him. Whether it’s any type of fish, fruit or veggie, the otter wasn’t a picky eater. So after a few days, I finally went out to gather the needed essential food supply for an abandoned otter I found. I got a couple of crab sticks packages, a pound of salmon, catfish, tilapia, all kinds of...

Otterly Cruel

WRITER'S NOTE: There is some animal cruelty in this passage. I strongly disapprove of these actions. If anyone of us sees an animal in need, let's do our part and save the critters from any harm. In the meantime, please proceed with caution. "Okay, Number 47, let's test your capacities," I said as I grabbed the otter from his containment. I wore safety gloves that you wear when handling cats. Can't be too careful. As I grabbed Number 47, he seemed a bit shaken. Must be his containment being freezing cold. I'll have to just the temperature ...
