“Rosie, tone it down. You wouldn’t want the kids to hear, right?” I warned her quietly.“I-it hurts! Slowly, Alex!” She whispered-yelled.It doesn’t take long until we heard rushed knocks on our bedroom door.“Mommy? Daddy? What are you doing?” That’s my sweet little angel.I am doomed.“Mommy, you promised me no more babies!” And that’s the demon.I looked at Rosie, who is now blushing hard. I’m not sure whether to laugh or scared, hearing my child angry shouts. She feels more like a mom than a daughter to me.That’s Elena, our first-born girl. The nine years old girl who clearly stated that she doesn’t want another younger sibling. She has had enough waking up in the middle of the night, because apparently, our youngest daughter, Allen, used to cry when the clock hits twelve in the middle of the night.Now that Allen is five, she has turned into the sweetest little angel I could ever wished for. Don’t blame me though. Allen is the only one who would stick by my side. Elena would alw

I looked down on Earth, seeing Elena and her partner, Avory, just exchanged vows in front of the Altar. When the pastor announced for the couple to kiss, the cheers erupted. The kiss sealed the vows. Finally, one of my daughter has found the love of her life, who would take care of her. This might sounds rude, but I can’t wait to meet Avory and thank him for taking care of my daughter. I glanced over Rosie to find her smiling. If we were still a human, I know she would cry a river seeing her first-born daughter get married. I give her a side hug and some soft pats, which resulting in her resting her head on my shoulder. Her eyes are never leaving the Earth’s view. I turned my attention back to the wedding party down there. Allen is laughing along with her aunt, Milly. Both of them are drunk enough, because if not, they won’t be screaming their lungs out to sing the ballad song from some singers I don’t recognize. They made it sound like a rock song. Allen even showed some dance moves

“What is your proudest moment alive?”“That I hate my family.”I blinked.Once.Twice.The plan wasn’t like this. This ten minutes social experiment was intended to have a heartwarming conversation with strangers about their proudest moments. I clearly wasn’t expecting a young woman to walk into our booth and came out to me like that.“Do you want to tell me about it?”She let out a lopsided smile, “my parents love my sister more than me. They prefer me starving to that disabled girl. Could you believe it?”“Maybe because your sister needs a little more attention? You know, because of her… condition?” I said, being extra careful.“That’s what I think so. That bitch has all the attention ever since she was born.”Honestly, I feel like cat got my tongue. I don’t want to say thin

“Alex, come one! I’m not a child anymore!”It’s seven and I come home to my sister and her so called boyfriend sucking each other’s mouth. If I come home ten minutes later, who knows what they’ll do.I glared at Ayle to shut her up. And it works. Even though she wants to protest, she keeps her mouth zipped. My attention is back to the guy who is now standing in the living room, shirtless.“What else have you done with my sister?” I asked as I slowly made my way towards him. This bastard keeps his eyes to the floor, avoiding my gaze. I could see him trembling.Tell me again how the fuck could my sister date him? He doesn’t even has the guts to look at me in the eyes. Ayle really needs to be brainwashed. Or else, she’ll always end up dating candy-ass.“W-we… just kissed.”As we stand face to face, I gripped his cheeks firmly, forcing him to look at me. “Do you

The song ‘Set Fire To The Rain’ in rock version, is blasting through every corner of the club. Breaking ears. But no one seems to mind. They are busy with their own business. Crowded dance floor. Horny teenagers doing God knows what on the very dark corner.“Let’s get wasted!”Bryan joined the dance floor after two shots of vodka. I thought I was the one who needs to unwind, but he is the most excited one.“Go ahead, I’ll stay here in a bit!” I shouted as the music gets louder.“Boo hoo! Party pooper!”And that colleague of mine disappeared in the crowds. I’m physically and mentally drained because of work and Ayle. I don’t think I have any energy to jump on the dance floor.“A tequila please!”“My shift is over. I’ll ask my friend to assist you, Sir. Just give me a moment.”The bartender earlier gave me a polite smile before d

“You are such a whore!”Mom keeps on kicking Ayle on the corner of this room. I was tied dead to the chair and couldn’t move. I tried wiggling my whole being, so at least I could fall from the chair and crawl to Ayle. But no matter how hard I struggle, I feel like the rope is getting tighter around my hand and feet. I could only watch mom practically kill my sister.Ayle curled up with both hands covering her face. She cries so hard that triggers mom more. “I told you he isn’t a good man, yet you still ran away with him! You dumb bitch!”SLAP!Another hard blow landed on Ayle’s cheek. My sister is howling in pain. Mom looks like she is possessed. She didn’t even care with the blood running from the corner of Ayle’s lips. She keeps on slapping and calls her names.“Mom stop! You a

BEEEEEP!!!BANG!SHIT. Did I just hit someone?I pulled out the handbrake and jump out of the car. There’s an old man on the asphalt, wincing in pain while holding his leg. I ran towards him and squatted down to check if there’s blood. Luckily, there’s none.“Oh my, I’m sorry, Sir! Are you okay?”I was about to help him stand up, only for me to feel a cold metal on my neck. A knife is being pressed lightly against my skin, making me freeze. I gulped and try not to make any moves. Move an inch and my throat could be sliced.“Give me all your money.” The old man stated calmly. I see no cars nor people around. It’ll be useless to fight back.“I-I have some cash inside the car.”“Don’t try to fool me.”“No! I didn’t! You could check it yourself!”“You know what will
