Love at first sight
Photo property of author
My persistence skills had paid off. The first date I was nervous about making any mistakes, I think I was very clumsy and inept, but I kept persevering and the second date I found out the real reasons for the distance. And I understood them completely. Sincerely, the romance that had been repressed for so long by both of us began to take place. The third date was magical, I remember it well on the beach, the two of us hugging each other, giving us a love that was being born and it was when she confessed to me in the middle of that excitement that from the beginning she had felt an attraction. -

My Inheritance
Author's own photo
Everything was bigger than I was in that kitchen. Several copper kettles that could have held me easily were cooling along the side wall. A huge marble work bench in the center of the room was large enough for six people to have a picnic on, and it was covered in recently filled chocolate molds in a variety of animals and shapes. There were racecars and bulldogs and pigs rowing boats; there were roosters and turkeys and lambs and horses and rabbits galore. Trays of colorful mints filled a cooling rack - pink, green, blue and white. -

The Summoning
Image created by author
There was a struggle between his will and mine for a split second but his oath made it easy to overwhelm him. I rose like a conquistador to the fore of his mind, taking over his being.
I could feel the warmth of the sun on my skin and the breeze in my hair. I exhaled in victory, relief and freedom.
I opened my eyes and looked around. A piece of small, sleek machinery on the table vibrated. I stared at it for a second. It told me the time was 2 pm and I had a lecture at 4 pm. -

Leah The Lunarian Link
Author's image
Leah kept striding on the track like stepping stones to the sky. She could see now that the tracks were leading to the location of the moon. Leah became surrounded by clusters of white moon dust. From the dust emerged a woman wearing a crown. Leah thought she had never seen a woman as beautiful in her entire life. The bunnies began to hop around behind the woman. She looked at Leah and smiled
“You are the woman on the moon!” Leah blurted. Are you the goddess of the moon?” Leah asked mesmerized by everything that was happening.

"7c?!??! but isn't that up in business class?"
"No mam, that's first. Veronica says you're welcome."
I did NOT get a whole row to myself....hahaha because, well, the seats up there don't NEED rows to themselves. They have full on BEDS and are stacked in a way that you're kind of your OWN aisle. So, I have not only just had my first flight to UK...but it was in the lap of luxury. -

The three instances I saw a ghost
Source
We were told that the easiest way to identify a spirit is to pour sand on him or her...
When I got home that day, I told my mom and all she could say was that I was terribly hungry and that affected my sight. She laughed over it but deep down my heart, I was so sure that I saw Daddy Miracle. I regretted not taking bold step to confirm if he's a ghost or not. -
