The Shorty’s Short List is out, and I’m thrilled to share that all three of my flash fiction entries made it! ❤️✨
          
          Check out BOUND, PANTS, and RIDE WITH ME in the C’est la Vie collection.
          
          PANTS -
          
          "I can't shower with my clothes on, genius," Hiro said, already fumbling with the button of his pants.
          
          Riku panicked. "Okay, NOPE!" He lunged toward Hiro, hands out, trying to stop him before he fully committed to stripping in the middle of the living room. "You don't need a shower right now!"
          
          RIDE WITH ME -
          
          Their eyes met, or at least she thought they did. His dark helmet obscured his face, hiding his expression, but she felt his gaze all the same. The lights turned green, officially granting him permission to his flight. But  he didn't.
          
          BOUND - 
          
          Now every time she opens the book, I fall a little deeper. I'm waiting for the day when she won't close it, when she'll let me stay with her, when she'll feel the same.
          
          Until then, I live for her.

"Leon, switch with me," I'd said earlier that night, lazily stretching my legs after dinner. "I'm too full to drive."
          
          He'd laughed, brushing my request aside. "You're always too full to drive. Relax, I've got this."
          
          I should've driven.
          
          That thought burrowed deep into my mind, gnawing at every shred of logic or reason. If I'd driven, if I'd just ignored the fullness in my stomach, maybe—maybe the car wouldn't have gone off the bridge. Maybe he'd still be here.

The Shortys' Longlist is up and all the 3 flash fic entries I submitted seems to have made it through. Mm....that sounds nice :)
          
          Check out,
          
          RIDE WITH ME - 
          "To that one girl watching me from the balcony every night... Wanna take a ride with me?"
          
          PANTS -  
          Hiro is drunk and Riku is devastated.
          
          BOUND - 
          It sucks to live and love while being stuck in a book.
          
          Happy Reading ❤️✨

There's a bittersweetness to it—a sense of loss I thought I'd left behind long ago. I've built a life out of forgetting things, of surviving instead of feeling. Yet here she is, proving me wrong just by breathing, by looking peaceful for once. For a second, I want to reach out, brush the hair from her face, but I know better than to touch what doesn't belong to me anymore.

For a moment, neither of them spoke. Only the soft evening breeze whispered through the alley till she finally found her voice.
          
          "Auden ..." Her voice quivered, betraying the myriad of emotions churning within her. 
          
          Unable to hold back any longer, Ada rushed forward, closing the distance between them, and enveloped her dear brother in a tight embrace. Tears welled up in her eyes, and her heart swelled with a mixture of love and relief.
          
          "Auden ... How have you been?" she whispered, her voice breaking.
          
          "Missed me, sis?" He asked, his voice tinged with a hint of teasing but his hands wrapped around her with the same vigor nonetheless.

This time was no different. With a flick of his wrist, Auden sent her sword clattering to the ground. Ada froze, glaring at him with mock fury as he leveled his blade at her. "Yield?"
          
          "Never," she declared, darting forward and tackling him to the ground in a blur of limbs and indignation. They wrestled like children, her knee digging into his side as he tried—and failed—to keep her pinned.
          
          "Your swordsmanship is questionable, but your dirty fighting is impeccable," he wheezed between laughs.
          
          She grinned triumphantly, finally rolling off him and lying on the grass, both of them panting and grinning up at the sky.
          
          "I'm glad. I have one of the best warriors to stand guard beside me."

As a trader of both legitimate and illegitimate secrets of the realm, he frequented places a normal mage from Crepusculum would never dare to wander. According to him, Normies were the dumbest, thus the easiest to blend in with for someone in hiding like her. Now, after seven years and two good common human friends, Ada wouldn't say Normies were essentially dumb. They were a bit slow and ignorant due to a lack of proper training like hers, but their blissful unawareness saved them a lot of trouble.

Cloaked in ebony, his hood pulled low to obscure his features, he was indistinguishable from the shadows pooling in the dark corners of Crepusculum. His head hung low, eyes fixated on a single flickering ember struggling to survive in the ashes.
          
          The heat was fading, but its presence lingered-just like the ghost of the man who had once been among the greatest mages the sanctum had ever known. Shinatzai Zen had been powerful, wise, and cunning. If someone like him could fall, what chance did Auden have? He was nothing more than a shadow now, pulled between forces beyond his control.
