Fanatic part 1 of 2
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56There was a boy who lived in a cave. He did not know the kings who ruled the lands outside. He didn't know any of the folk tales in his village. All the boy did was read. He read books from all over the world, directly from a book importer. The sailor asked the boy to read all the books, and then translate them into the country's language. The boy did it with pleasure, he loved the sailor.
He read books about pirates, thieves, heroes, passionate ladies, and corrupt politicians. But he had never really seen any of them, and he didn't even plan to. The world was so dangerous for him, and although innocent he knew it.
One day, a woman appeared at the cave door. She came to the boy and said:
- Poor kid! Poor thing! What can I do to alleviate the suffering that passes through the old sailor's hands?
The boy looked at the woman confused and asked:
- Madame, do you know the old sailor? He gives me shelter, food, and books. He also teaches me many things.
Gabriela BerriThis story is a psychological quiz: answer: a) the old sailor is a bad man b) everyone is crazy c) the priest and madam are crazy d) the boy is an idiot, he should listen to the others.

The next day a sailor who also worked in the port, besides the old sailor, knocked on the door. This time, the boy didn't open it. The sailor appealed:- Open the door, boy!But the boy only answered on the other side:- I will not open! You just want to get me out of here! When I don't even want to raise! If you have something to say, tell me!And so did the sailor. He sat in front of the door and started talking:- Your sailor is not from here boy. He comes from a land of barbarians. They refuse the words of God and kill without mercy. For this reason, they are deformed. They have completely destroyed their own lands and now seek to take that of others. LOOK AT THE SAILOR'S SKIN my boy. It is black as night, like everything that is bad, it is ugly. LOOK AT HIS HAIR my boy! They are also black like those who once came here and murdered many!The sailor sniffed and and said in a tearful voice:- One of the victims was my daughter, you

Strange short stories Strange short stories Vol. 2 introduction
Until now, strange short stories had only very short stories. But from volume two I intend to add stories that have 10 to 20 captains as well. These stories are not so long nor have so much visibility as a separated book. For this reason, I decided to move all then into strange short stories, that is already a storybook of different themes. The w******l policy does not allow me to remove or delete those books, so they will remain there but as a "paused" book. You can find only the introduction of those books on w******l and no else more. But there you can find some covers I made for those stories and that I can not upload here. The stories of a single chapter will continue to be published, of course. Each volume of Strange short stories will have 3 medium-sized stories and about 10 short stories. To make it easier to understand and more transparent, this chapter will be like a summary for this and the following volumes. Vol.2: &n

Strange short stories Who is Detective blind cat?
In fact, he's not a house cat. He looks more like a small cheetah. He wears a collar to please his love, the bear. But he is a wild serval. His grandfather was a Siamese cat. But if you dare to call him domestic, you'll end up learning because he's not the hard way. He's nobody special, but he always dreamed of being. For example he was never in a blind school, because in his mind he could do everything the others could. One day he said he wanted to be a detective at school. He rambled about the bravery of detectives with all his passion, in front of the entire class. When he was over, there was no applause, just silence, followed by a question from one of his friends (a seal of course, they love silly jokes): - Isn't it easier for a disabled pet to stay at home and take care of the kittis?- Everyone burst into laughter. He then realized that for others h
Strange short stories Bia's antics - More about Bia
Upon a time, there was a very small and happy girl named Bia. She was adventurous, curious, kind, and lovely. She loved to go to the doctor. She ate all her vegetables as they were candy and never was mean to anyone. ( or so she thought) And she had a big kitten she took care of very well. But she was also not perfect. She had an incredibly big fear when she needed to go far from her house (the ship) because she thought she would get lost. She also hated to eat in restaurants or any place that was not her house because she always had a stomach ache afterward. She never liked kids or adults that she did not know for more than 3 months and was very rude to them. Also, she liked to plan everything. She would spend hours thinking about hypothetical scenarios. When something got out of the plan she became very anxious and could not do anything more. Every time one of those things happened, she had a very strong stomach ache and her mother h
