"Who's the kid across the street?" I asked my mom one day. "What boy?" My mother answered, looking out the window into the house across the street. "I don't see him." "You can't?" I asked, looking up at her. "No... oh! Right! The police said that a child was locked into the house by his parents in 1996, and I guess he died there...? I'm not exactly sure." My mother said, stroking my hair.

What Watches Back || ONC 2025
The boy stood in front of the bathroom mirror, a little too close, his tiny hands pressed against the cold surface. He smiled at his reflection, though it didn't smile back right away. He was used to this. It was always like that-he would smile, and then the reflection would follow, eventually. "Hi, there," the boy whispered, his voice a soft murmur in the quiet house. From the kitchen, the sound of pots clanging echoed, and his mother's humming filled the space. He could hear the rhythm of the spatula stirring in the pan, the sizzling of whatever she was cooking. His father, still seated at the dining table, rustled the newspaper, absorbed in the evening's headlines. "Mom, look, it's me," the boy called out, his eyes never leaving the mirror. He waited for her usual response-a glance over her shoulder, a quick nod of acknowledgment. But she didn't answer. She just hummed. The boy tilted his head, eyes narrowing. There was something about his reflection now that felt different, too still, too patient. "Hello?" His voice trembled slightly. "Why don't you say something?" In the reflection, his own lips parted in silent mockery. But this time, he swore it wasn't him. The boy swallowed hard, his pulse quickening. His reflection didn't mirror his every movement anymore. It was slightly delayed, like it was watching him instead. A whisper seemed to curl in the air around him, soft but distinct. "You're not alone here." His heart thudded. The voice, distant but clear, came from the mirror. "Who's there?" the boy asked, his voice barely above a whisper. His father grunted from the other room, and the boy glanced toward the dining table. His father was engrossed in his newspaper. The boy turned back to the mirror. The reflection was still staring, but now, something more than just the image of himself looked back. "Don't you want to play?" the reflection asked, its smile curling wider, unnaturally wide.Complete
The Witnesses
FINISHED It was a dark winter's morning. My family and I went for a walk. I was five, now I'm fifteen. They say, "The longer someone's missing, the less likely they're coming back." This day, ten years ago my eight year old brother was standing right in front of me. Every time I come back here I can feel his presence. Like he's everywhere but nowhere. But every time the police question me, I tell them the same thing. "What I say is what they say, what I do is what they do and how I think is how they think." "Who are they?" The police ask me. I say, "... the witnesses."Complete

His Daughter
Hi my name is lacey, well that's not my real name. That's what people would call me.... If I knew anyone. The only contact I have with the human race was going to the stores, but no one was interested in my dirty clothes, or my ability to look like a hobo. I basically am anyways. And if anyone is interested enough to know my name, it's just me, Lacey. That's the name one the police officers gave me, to help me after what had happened. He is the only one that knows about my case, everyone else I have to be careful about. So I guess I do know someone but not the kind of person that 17-year-old girls should know. My old name and life was left behind when my mother was. Dead, in the house, because of him. It's a really long story.Complete
Revenge In Love|✓
#𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝟏 𝐨𝐟 '𝐁𝐈𝐋𝐋𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐄𝐒 𝐑𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐆𝐄' 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 ... "Why can't you handle the truth? The real truth is, you're not a man enough, Arjun!" That was all Siya had to say. Arjun roughly picked her up, carried her out of the bathroom, and threw her onto the bed. Siya was taken aback but didn't let fear show. Arjun hovered over her, his expression a mix of anger and determination. "Now I'll show you how much of a man I am." He said, smashing his lips against hers in a forceful kiss. Siya tried to push him away, but Arjun pinned both of her hands with one hand and held her cheeks with the other. He parted her lips and continued to kiss her aggressively, biting and nibbling at her lips with intense fury. "Arjun, let me go! Leave me, you bastard, you fucker, leave me!" She screamed, but Arjun ignored her pleas, kissing her with fierce determination. She lost track of time, feeling as though she might suffocate. Finally, he pulled away, and she gasped for air. Before she could process what was happening, Arjun tore her dress in one swift motion and threw it aside. Siya was completely shocked, but when she realized she was left only in her underwear, she quickly tried to cover herself, but Arjun didn't give her a chance. He locked her hands again and began attacking her neck with frenzied aggression, biting and sucking, breaking the skin and drawing blood. "Arjun, please let me go! What are you doing? Arjun, let me go!" Siya cried out in excruciating pain. Her cries made Arjun come to his senses. He released her, and Siya seized the moment to push him away and sit up. Seeing her in such a state, Arjun became aware of what he had almost done. Before he could speak, Siya slapped him so hard that the sound reverberated through the room.
