Gohar: An Extremely Chilling Horror
Before I begin this deeply unsettling and curious tale, I must explain how I came to be part of it. It all started one evening when my wife lay on the bed, her face pale, her expression troubled after meeting with one of her closest friends. The haunting look in her eyes was enough to chill me. I had to ask what was weighing on her mind. She turned to me with a sharp, almost haunted glance, and I knew at that moment that what she was about to share would be unlike anything I'd ever heard before. All of my stories come from my wife's experiences-she seems to attract the strange and unexplainable. Naturally, I was eager to hear what was disturbing her this time. And then, she told me the story you are about to read: the story of 'Gor.' This tale revolves around the terrifying and bizarre events surrounding the child of my wife's best friend, Ripsime. Even now, those unsettling events continue to unfold, gripping all who come too close. Whatever you think or feel as you read, remember-this story is based on true events.Complete

You were with me. i love you for that. But I hate that I love you. I was never good with love. I'm scared that one day I'll wake up without you by my side. One day you will realize that you are better off without me and I don't want that day to come. Not now, not ever. I love you too much to let you go.

We are both broken and incomplete but together, we're whole and we're fixed. We might be too bad for the others, but we are good for each other.

Release Me
Highest ranked- #10 in action 2/16/2017 A promotion. That's all I wanted. I didn't want to run for my life. I didn't want to be kidnapped. I didn't want to face death. I didn't want to find out my whole life was a lie. I just wanted a bloody promotion. Guess fate had other plans? **** The cold air fanned over my face as I opened the door. The exit door lead to the back of the building so it was pitch black. I leaned against the wall trying to control myself. Blood was running down my arm and head. My hair was stuck to my face from all the sweat and blood. Everything was spinning around me and the ground seemed like it was shaking. Groaning I sat down and put my head on my knees. He knows who I am. He knows how I look like. He knows where I work so possible knows where I live. I am not safe anymore... no where. While I was in my own world I heard faint sounds behind me but I didn't bother to look or run away. The footsteps got closer and I was pretty sure it was Walker's men. I should run. I should try to fight. But what's the point in trying to run away? He would eventually find me and if he has his way he would most likely kill me. If this is my fate then why am I trying to fight it? I felt someone harshly grab my waist and pull me up and I complied. They dragged me down the alley and into the busy street. I heard the opening of a car and the next thing I knew I was being thrown into a car. My head hit the hard leather seat and the door shut behind me. Maybe this is how my life will end. Maybe I should just let it happen. Maybe I was destined to die alone as a no one. With that I let the darkness consume me.Complete

Through depression, through loss, and through accomplishments. No matter what the occasion, they were always there for me, and I for them. They were people I would soon realize meant the world to me. But as the saying goes, you never really know what you have until you truly lose it forever.
