Regret
“- sandwiches!” I finish exclaiming as I flash back into Eva’s kitchen. My cool points were pretty far gone after I lost my temper and realized my girlfriend was stranded in the kitchen with a couple of strangers and an absent-memory Eva. I was partially hoping my absence was, for the most part, unnoticed. I … Continue reading Regret
She’s Going to Be so Peeved
The one thing breaking my concentration beyond my caregiver lying on the ground was her daughter. I immediately thought she had also fallen unconscious and would tumble down the stairs at any minute. I flashed into the stairwell just as the front door latched. Scarlett looked dizzy at first but soon shook off the imbalance. … Continue reading She’s Going to Be so Peeved
The Best Foot Forward?
Neat was a bit of an understatement. Mostly I was super inquisitive from that moment on until when we all left. Question upon question streamed from my mouth about her and then about her brother. When the patrons started to rouse, Junk ducked out to go and wait by the car. Rook stayed and … Continue reading The Best Foot Forward?
Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth
Now, I handled things very calmly. Maybe a little too calmly. All things considered in my past, a grandson in a state of unconsciousness is rather small on the scale of freak-outs.

TTTG CH. 7: After the Death of Joshua
The abrupt departure of my mother left Mo and I standing and debating the mind-reader scenario for a while. After a stalemate of ideas, we moved on to the possible scenarios of who would want to kill Mo and why. Our suspect list included the Deslin twins and possibly faculty at our school. The list … Continue reading TTTG CH. 7: After the Death of Joshua
TTTG Ch. 6: After the Death of Mo…
I admit it; I was embarrassed in this specific instance. So much, I refused to let go of Mo until she swore she would not open her eyes, even a crack. I think she was starting to think I was some kind of pervert until she listened to the ruckus of embarrassing thoughts catapulting in … Continue reading TTTG Ch. 6: After the Death of Mo…
