The next attack I haven’t told her about this. It can be excruciating, the want of a car. Not any car, but that car. There are elements of pure joy and hurt. These moments are interspersed but not in equal measure. The pain takes the lead role until you get the keys in your hand.[…]
Circulating overflow David’s waiting game had its consequences. Largely, they were damaging. This profound thought did not dawn upon him as he climbed peaks in South America or when he floated in the Bavarian seas. It wasn’t even the fact that he was actively counting years and checking off his birthday, year after year. Rather,[…]
David stirred in the silent night. His habit of sleeping with windows open had often welcomed noises of nature from outside. A disturbance he occasionally needed to fall asleep. But on this night, not a soul outside was awake. No wind rustled any leaves and the lack of a moon heightened the blackness. She then[…]
David could hardly be considered a socialite. His past embroiled in stealing Aston Martins had made him a recluse for many reasons. Even after he gave that up for Jennifer, he had remained his reticent self. He was also fairly awkward with Jen in most situations. This clumsiness she had once considered attractive, she hated[…]
“Jennifer”, he exhaled slowly as she turned around. As far as he could remember, she looked just as spectacular as she had when he had first lay eyes on her.

Lonely up there At 50,000, the Spaceship-Two disconnected from its mother ship, Virgin Eve. David was amused by how silent it had suddenly become. Before he could wrap his mind around the emptiness of outer atmosphere, the hybrid rockets on Spaceship two ignited. David was subjected to intense gravitational forces that pushed him squarely back[…]
The jab in the jaw was so sudden, so immediate that it was more surprising than terrifying. It made him fling sideways, eventually stumble and fall awkwardly on the asphalt. Just when he was getting his bearings sorted out, his eyes saw an incoming kick into his groin area. The pain was immediate. He wanted[…]
“What we really need at this time, at this instant is an artist”, David said in a distinctly serious manner. Jennifer became puzzled at this statement. It had been a lovely dinner. A long winding affair that felt questionably short. The night was crisp but not cold. The starts shimmered like extras, only in the[…]
Before Jennifer, David dated her. And while he could recollect many facets of their time together, he could not piece together the time or the environment when he last kissed her before they split. He could not remember the place, the position and her posture. Frankly, he was quite perturbed by this. Are final kisses[…]
