The Big Eye

Margaret turned to him, staring into the window of his soul, wondering if he was kidding. As if Alex could read her thoughts, he shifted his gaze to the road and said,“It’s not a lie, I’m sorry.” “Stop the car” Margaret said.Alex pulled over by the side of the road, expecting her to hop off, it Margaret remained still, staring intently at him.“Alex, people talk, they communicate in a relationship, they tell each other what isn’t working and see how they can make it work…”“That is what I’ve been doing all these weeks, but you don’t seem to see me, or see it that way.You see it as a worry, a disturbance.”“Yes, Margaret! I don’t want a relationship where my life takes a different course, I want my life to remain the same even with you in it. I appreciate a little shift in schedule, or a little change in lifestyle. But I don’t want a major change over a short period of time.”“I’m sorry I am not like O’Neil Jac. I can’t be him…”Margaret’s jaw dropped in shock at the sudden turn of

Brother’s bond

The two friends stepped out of the car, feeling emotionally drained and defeated by Gary. “Here, your car key…” Alex grumbled handing over Fredrick’s keys to him.The two were walking in front of Gary like two children being paraded by their father.Unexpectedly, Fredrick stopped and turned around to ask,“I want to marry her… but I’m scared that I’ll be rejected again.”“What can I do to get her this time?”“I want to get it right…”Gary heaved a sigh of sympathy, “How pathetic?! The great Fredrick Hughson, clueless for the first time…”“While you’re at it, help me get Margaret out of my system.”Without thoughts, Alex’s request was obvious.“The decision is yours, Alex” Gary began.“But before then, let’s get a bottle of wine…”“I’ll go, so I can tell my wife I’m outside…” Fredrick solicited.Alex and Gary nodded. “Where should we convene?” “At the school house!” Gary blurted.“I’ve always wanted to go there..”Fredrick smiled wryly, “Let’s go there then…”Margaret busted into

Heather: Creepy smile, tingly eyes

The next morning was cold as usual, of course, it was winter but Adrian would not stop sighing. He had a caught a cold from sitting in the garden with Aunt Margaret, who was by the way, still mourning Alex. “And she is not pregnant either, why is she so emotional?!” Adrian groaned, thinking about the day he was about to have again.Fredrick had exchanged him in place of Avery for Margaret. He would take her for a stroll, talk to her, say “Alex is so sweet” painfully from the memories of her relationship she had told a hundred times. Every day would begin with a knock on the door and a slump on the bed, he was tired every day, too tired to remember anything. Today, he had decided that he would lock his door, and stay in no matter what. He needed his sleep.His phone was silenced too.He writhed under the sheets, snuggling in to the warmth he generated from staying in one spot for too long.Not particularly asleep, just dreaming…“If we ever break up, will Heather this sad about me?

Never too old for mistakes

“She wasn’t kidding, I tell you, you’ve lost your chance.”Gary’s voice could be heard from the living room where Adrian and Alex were watching a soccer game.Adrian slumped in the couch, burying his face in disbelief.“I didn’t want to do it in a car… it’s my first time, it should be special.” He explained. “Do you know how that sounds to her?” Noah concurred, settling into a plush chair next to Alex.“What does it mean?” Adrian asked, looking curious and eager.“It means I am not ready, I don’t find you attractive enough… women are not humans, trust me!”Adrian’s eyes fell on Alex, pleadingly asking for help, he wanted him to say that they were just teasing him, but Alex would not even look him in the eye.“Uncle Alex…?” He grumbled.“A.D. don’t ask me for advice, look, I’m single as a spoon.” Alex scoffed.“You should have listened to me, that hotel room would have been a good idea.” Gary said, plonking into an armchair opposite him.Adrian took a deep breathe, and exhaled softly.

Gone with the wind…

Alex’s voice echoed through the house, falling in Margaret’s ears.“I never said I was over her!” She nearly tripped from the enchanting words that seemed to be just the melody she needed for the night.For days, she had been the one wallowing in tears and misery. It felt good to know that he was in as much pain as she was. She pulled the foyer door shut quietly, careful not to alert the boys that she had heard them.“And oh, God bless Adrian!” She squealed, dancing to his car excitedly.Adrian heard his car zoom off in the distance, he turned to Alex and said,“And just like that, she’s gone with the wind…” “I’m going to punch you in the face” Noah riposted.“Why would you do that?” Gary interjected, “Alex, if you want your girl back, go get her. If you don’t want, then let her go…”“Address the elephant in the room and leave the rabbit alone…”Alex slumped on the chair, palming his face.“Oh my god!” Adrian gasped.“What?!” Gary and Noah exclaimed.“I’m the rabbit!” He exclaimed.

Busted!

Alex jolted up from the bed running towards the window at the gliding sound of the gate. He glanced at his phone screen and noticed it was almost midnight.He didn’t know whether to leap for joy, and slump in sadness at arrival of the car in the compound.He heard the car door slam shut, and listened on for her approaching footsteps. Unknown to him that Margaret had hopped on the trunk of the vehicle, crying her heavy heart out. Alex paced around restlessly, trying to figure out why she hadn’t come into the house. His thoughts were abruptly interrupted by a soft thudding on his door, and he instantly prayed it was Margaret. Arranging his pajamas, he sauntered over to the door, squinting his eyes to give a groggy expression on his face.He slowly opened the door, his heart racing rapidly at the thought of seeing Margaret at the door. “Can I borrow your charger? I can’t find mine” Gary said mindlessly, completely unaware of Alex’s disappointment.Alex breathed deeply as he hurried

Prey or Predator?

A plate of greens and rainbows was served for each person on the table.Adrian would not stop grumbling about the food, “Human beings need more than just vegetables, what about protein?”“There’s a glass of milk by your side, A.D” Margaret replied.“Aunt Margaret, don’t you like me anymore?” Adrian pouted, almost crying.“I do like you, that is why I’m giving you vegetables, I promise lunch will have lots of meat. Just eat this for my sake.”“Adrian, be careful. You might get sued.…” Gary teased.“What? Why?” Adrian said, reading the amused expression on people’s faces.“Oh, I see… they got back together?” “Yes, they did! You don’t seem surprised…” Noah and Gary chorused.“It’s not quite shocking, is it?” Adrian asked, taking a spoon of garnished broccoli and spinach.“I think it is…” Avery chipped in, “I was quite shocked when I saw them…” she paused, not wanting to share their privacy.“Okay, look at it this way… would you break up with someone you were in love with?” Adrian aske

Basic things like that

“What is wrong with wanting to know you a little more?” Heather asked, her eyes glinting with a hint of sadnessAdrian hesitated, cautiously thinking out his words.“Does it bother you that I am older?”“No, not at all.” Adrian panicked.It’s just a year… did you hear all of that too?”“Exactly how long were you behind us?”Heather smiled wryly, “I stood there for a while, but you were too engrossed to notice me…” “I’m sorry, it must have been frustrating…” he apologized.“You have a beautiful family, and there’s one more person joining the family very soon…” she grinned, but she looked sad even with her a smile on her face.“I love your sister, she’s adorable…”Silence ensued between them for a few seconds, Adrian had been wondering and thinking hard on how to remove the glinting disappointment in her eyes. She was smiling, yet he couldn’t help but notice that her face bore no happiness.“There’s nothing special about me…” he confessed.“I don’t want to talk about myself because th

Christmas Day: a new contract

Avery tossed and twirled on the bed all night, she was having a hard time sleeping on just one side of her body. Her baby bump was protruding into an obvious seven months pregnancy, of course that wasn’t it.She wasn’t worried about her protruding stomach, but about the closing in end of her marriage contract with Fredrick.In a few months, in three months exactly, she was sure Alex would call her to his Law Firm and present her with a termination of contract.What she couldn’t understand was her fears for that day, she had been expecting, she had been preparing it for it. She just didn’t prepare for the nervousness that would come with it and more painfully is the memory of Fredrick asking her to validate their marriage and she said no. “I don’t regret it!” She exclaimed, burying her face in the pillow.“I think you do!” Fredrick replied groggily. He had just woken up from sleep and observed her in great thoughts. He had no clue what she was thinking, he had no clue what she meant
