DIED A BEAUTY, REINCARNATED AS A BEAST FOR THE SAKE OF OUR STOMACHS
Paul and Barnabas breathed with relief when I admitted to the crime I didn't commit, and I can see the contentment on their faces when I keep blabbering. "You are right. I have seven demons inside me, and one of them is the prince of the demon. I have killed one thousand men and women, drank their blood and imprisoned their souls. Paul's mouth remained open as he gawked at me and asked, "why did you have two golden eyeballs?""To steal people's souls," I answered back with a grin "Holy ghost fire!" Barnabas exclaimed at my unbelievable confession, gawked at me and asked, " how many souls have you stolen so far, and what did you do what all those stolen souls?" At this moment, I no longer care but seemed to be enjoying the drama. To scare them more, I growl like a wild animal, rolling my golden pupils like a leaf on top of moving water and sticking my tongue out of my cheek. Paul who seemed not to be able to bat his eyes as he peeked at me with an open mouth asked, "tell us what w
DIED A BEAUTY, REINCARNATED AS A BEAST A BABY CAN'T FALL IN LOVE
The sun was already glaring in the sky when I woke up, and I was surprised to see myself wrapped in thick wool, and lying on a soft mattress. Even without being told, I knew it was the handwork of Alice. As consciousness dawned on me, so also another familiar aroma... The aroma of chicken!Since I grew my first tooth, I had begged, cajole, and even cried for roasted chicken, but all my plead can be compared to pouring water into a basket. Fruitless!But today, I stood in a bowl of completely roasted chicken."You have woken up, how are you feeling?"I turned towards the booming voice, then growl with disappointment at the owner of the voice. Contrary to my expectations, Madam Maggie stood beside me and peeked at me with her emotionless eyes. "Good. Thank you for checking on me."She nodded her head twice, sighed and stooped on her knees, and then said," are you okay now?.. The two priests said they removed seven demons from you, is that right?""I have no idea," I answered, shrug
DIED A BEAUTY, REINCARNATED AS A BEAST BETRAYED BY ALICE
I was the favourite in my previous life, but now, I am the black sheep. Apart from Alice who previously liked me, but now given me a reason to doubt her loyalty, others had shown that they hate me with passion. Being a poor judge of people's character in my previous life, I was surprised to be born with the instinct that made me see people beyond the facade on their faces. When I told Alice that Paul and Barnabas gave the money to me, she reacted as if she was already aware of this. 'What is she hiding, and why did she lie to me,' I asked myself, shrugged and let out, 'I did what I did because you are my only friend here. I don't care if you lied to me or not.'Knowing my mind won't rest until I find the truth out, I moaned out loud as I lay with my back on the mattress.'The most important thing is to get my task done, then I will have the chance to watch her, then find out what she is hiding from me.'I'm I jealous?.. Yes. I hate to think she lied to me.'Get a grip on yourself.
DIED A BEAUTY, REINCARNATED AS A BEAST THREE PIECES OF PLASTIC
I stood up from the tiny mattress, yawned out loud and hurried out of the chapel. The sky was deserted of stars and moon, and the whole world seemed to be plunged into total darkness.Since is the middle of the night, everywhere was deserted.The light from the bulbs that were fixed on the wall of the chapel illuminated my way as I walked towards the end of our grassland, and then turned my shadow into something more grotesque.Being wary of snakes, my eyes darted around, and my two ears were alert to every sound around me.I could hear the crickets chirping, hear the frogs calling out to their mates, and the birds as they sing to their loved ones. Sad as it may seem, everyone was happy except me!To keep my fear away, I whistle the song that I love most in my previous life, increased my speed, and I can hear the maddening sound of my heartbeat as I inhale and exhale. 'Woof... Woof!'I heard the bark before seeing the dog, and when it raised its two ears, barked louder and sprinted
DIED A BEAUTY, REINCARNATED AS A BEAST LIFE IS TWO SIDES OF A COIN!
Hearing the system had no useful information made me groan with despair, sighed and dismissed the annoying glittering light with a wave of my hand. And when it blinked out of existence, I removed the white cover of the black reservoir, turned it upside, and curled up inside the bowl-shaped cover. After several minutes of admiring the stars in the sky, I close my eyes and was lost in thought. I love gazing at the stars. Maybe it is because I don't have the chance to watch the beauty that adorned the sky at night. I was so busy in my past life and anything that has nothing to do with making money is out of my way.Being born under different circumstances, I always stood in awe whenever I see the beauty of nature.'Hmm... Hmmm!'The sound of a mosquito jerked me out of my reverie.In anger, I raised my hand and targeted the tiny insect as it perched on my nose.'Gush! Did you have to sing before you suck my blood?' I descended with fury and smack my face, felt a hot sting, followed b
DIED A BEAUTY, REINCARNATED AS A BEAST NEVER TRUST A BITCH
Never trust a bitch!.. Bingo the dog had proved this saying to be nothing but the truth. All my effort to call it close to me proceed abortively, and when Mother Maggie, Alicia and Betty see my unwillingness to follow them, they all gawked at me for a while, hissed and walked off. I can hear Mother Maggie as she cries on her way, "I can't believe I paid Paul and Barnabas a thousand dollars for nothing... This baby is still possessed and all their exorcism is in vain.""Won't he follow us?" Alicia asked. "He will come when he is hungry. We can't wait here the whole day for him," Betty announced."Yes. We need to attend to other normal babies, and not waste the whole of today on a possessed baby," Mother Maggie mumbled, waved at the two nuns and said, "go and give attention to the rest of the babies while I make some calls."I watched them go, sighed and sat at the root of a tall tree, and then groaned out loud in fear. My source of worry is Mother maggie's threat. To say the fact,
DIED A BEAUTY, REINCARNATED AS A BEAST A SEALED DEAL
Based on my promise to Mother Maggie, I law low and tried to behave like a normal two years old baby. Yet still, living a normal life seemed impossible for an adult that is trapped in a baby's body. After my night on top of the water reservoir, most of the nuns who heard my story ignored me, and I was left alone most of the time.To be candid, I love my loneliness, and I sometimes summoned my only friend for chitchat. As far as I was made to believe, some souls were turned into light and automated voices, and they must monitor us and then inform us of our tasks. The systems were unfortunate souls like us, trapped in the air, and will remain messengers to the supreme beings. The system attached to me was the soul of a formal dictator of an African state, and he had been serving as a mediator between the heavenly being and their unfortunate specimen for thousands of years.And because I am in a lively mood today, I eat my meal earlier and hurried out of sight. And I was laying under
DIED A BEAUTY, REINCARNATED AS A BEAST A SURPRISE
Betty didn't exaggerate, Mac-Bernard produce the tastiest roasted chicken in the world. Soft and succulent, the meats from the chicken had filled my stomach, and all I need to be contented is a cup of cold water.After peeping from my hideout, I stepped out of the grassland and walked towards our hall. And I was still glowing from the pleasure of the delicious chicken when I saw Betty and Agatha arguing at the back of a tree nearby.'Oh my gosh! What's the way out?' I asked myself, turned left and increase my stride."Hey. Jasmine, cover here," Betty cried out."Is he running away?" Agatha asked."A moment, Betty. I am thirsty and need a cup of cold water.""Damn you, Jasmine. Come here now before I lose my attitude.""I need to drink some -.""You are not taking any steps, except towards us," Betty cried out."Okay... Okay. No need to yell!""There is always a need to yell when someone sends you to give me some money and you decide to keep them for yourself."Betty and Agatha stood w

WORTHY EVIDENCE
Thanks to Nana's timely arrival, Brown would have snuffed the life out of me. I picked up my gadgets and ran out of his room in fright. "What is wrong with Jasmine? He looked like someone who saw a ghost," Nana asked as I hurried past her. "He is a strange baby. We were having a chat when he heard your voice and scurried out. I thought he was on his way to meet you." "No. He almost collided with me and he ran off before I asked him what is wrong." Without waiting for Brown's answer, I ran as fast as my tiny legs could carry me, arrived at my room and banged the door after. 'He knew that I am after information. What should I do now?' "Hey, System. Are you here with me?" The holographic image appeared instantly, and the automated voice sounded after. "Yes. I am here with you." "I already copied all his information into a USB Drive. I need the mail to them too." "Good. The entity in charge of exposing him will message you soon. You can forward all the information to him." I
CAUGHT AT LAST
My chance came a day later. Brown returned home drunk and slept through the day, so I sneaked into his room, replaced my laptop and my phone with his own, and scrambled into my room. 'All I need is some minutes to access this laptop. I am sure I will get all the necessary information if I can hack his mail.'"Hey, Jasmine. What are you up to?"Mary's voice jolted me out of reverie, and I promptly frown my face and answered back. "None of your business. I have something important to check online, so I suggest that you go away.""You are a weird baby, Jasmine. A baby of your age ought to be obsessed with cheaper toys, and not expensive gadgets.""Thank you, now go away."I quickly locked my door and get to work. Each time is precious and should not be wasted. Brown can wake up any moment from now. Since I don't know Brown's password, I pressed the forgotten password button, received the code on his phone, and then log into his mail. In a few minutes, everything was copied into a USB
BEAUTY IS BEYOND A LOOK
The drive from the government reserve area to the centre of the City takes almost an hour, and I peeked through the car window as she raced through the crowdy community. Despite my pilgrimage around the world, I was surprised that I had never visited any of the cities around here. And the fact that I was reincarnated on the other side of the earth made me despise the entity that sent me here.'The system promised that I can see anyone I wish. Should I ask to see my mother?'I wonder if she is still alive. Wonder if she still hated me, and wish she had grown old with no one to cater for her. Indirectly, my mother was responsible for my death. She was the one who always tell me that I am not good enough, not beautiful enough. And it was her negative words that made me lose the belief I had in myself. Even when the money is flowing in, and I have thousands of suitors seeking my hands for marriage, I still believe I can be more appealing, and richer. I wasn't satisfied because I want
MARRIED TO A BEAST
Thinking about Alice and her mysterious disappearance robbed me of a well-deserved night of rest, and it was when the day is about to break that I finally drifted to the dream world. As usual, my dreams were filled with demons and hell, and I woke up with a scream and a horrific look. "Good morning, Jasmine. You must have been dreaming."I opened my eyes, smiled to welcome my foster mother, and then rolled to the edge of the bed and let out, "Yes, Nana. I was having a bad nightmare. Is it daybreak already?"Nana giggled, pointed at the reflective sliding glass and let out, "Stand up lazy bone. The sun is about to come out.""Ouch. I feel weak and exhausted," I muttered, stretched my arms and yawned out loud. "Where is Brown?""He is getting dressed up for work, and he will be going without me.""Why is he in a hurry? You always drive out at the same time.""Yes, Jasmine. I have a presentation at a university in another state, and then another presentation at a seminar. I won't be bac
MAKE HIM DANCE TO MY TUNES
The following day was the worst since I was born, torn between my loyalty to my new family, and my dependency on the system, I was unable to decide my next step of action. 'How will I get the documents needed to convict Brown for exploiting and using illegal immigrants?' I asked myself aloud and then moaned softly when I realized that no answer is forthcoming. I wish I can eat my cake and still have it. I want to achieve the special mission, and then save my family from the impending shame and punishment.Realising I have to forgo one for the other, I sighed, shrugged and shakes my head at my resolution. I have no choice but to stand for truth and fairness. If Brown had been using illegal immigrants, then he must be punished for his crime. My emotions can stay aside. I was lost in thought through the daytime, and my wandering mind denied me the pleasure of sleep afterwards. As soon as the sun peeked in the sky, I leapt out of my bed, stepped out of my room and arrived at Brown and
A SPECIAL TASK
After failing to find her among the new intake of the high schools in Barbados, I decided to track her through her phone number. It was an easy trick. One that I had done several times in my previous life. All I need to do is to send a spam message to her line, and the moment she opened it, her location will be visible to me. Unlucky for me, I don't have her phone number, and worse of all, I don't have a phone. Realizing that I will have to wait until Nana comes back, I stood up and went to my room, and I was enjoying the breeze from the Air Conditioner as I lay on my king-size bed.Perhaps the system senses my restlessness or just a sheer coincidence, I was surprised when the circle of light appeared beside me, and the automated voice boomed out."Host found, merging activated... I checked for hours before finding you. Barbados is such a large city.""Sorry, pal. I was about to summon you when you appeared. I hope finding me is not much trouble for you.""Yes it is, but never mind.
NEED SOME OUNCE OF LOVE
'Boom.' 'Where am I?' The room was painted white, the roof made with a white POP, and the floor perfected with impeccable white tiles. And when I caught sight of the white bed cover, white duvet, and my white nightgown, I burst into tears. 'Where am I?' Despite achieving my task, the system had betrayed me, and now I am dead and back in heaven. 'Of course, that is the only reasonable explanation -. But wait, how did I die?' I hopped down from the bed, walked towards a white-framed standing mirror, and then gawked at the image standing in my front. 'Oh my gosh! I am not dead." From my experience during my time in the gathering of the dead and purgatory, I discovered that the soul of a human doesn't possess a human shape, but looks like a ball of light. Luckily for me, the image before I possessed an oblong shape head, big golden eyeballs and a weird-shaped mouth. 'If I am not dead, then where am I?' I frown, put my right folded palm on my chin and look lost in thought. 'I w
SWALLOW MY PRIDE
"We heard you get adopted, and the driver of your new family is on the way to pick you up.""Oh, What a lucky baby!""Hey, Alicia. Did you hear that his foster parents were rich and influential?""Geez! How lucky you are, Jasmine.""Let him breathe. All of you are now acting like his friend because of his good fortune.""Enough, Betty. We all know you are his greatest adversary."I watched as the nuns fussed over me, smiled when they all struggled to dress me up, and then sighed when Betty carried me like a crate of eggs, hurried out of our washroom, and caresses me as she walked towards Mother Maggie's section of the villa. "Put me down and let me work with my legs. Why are you treating me like fragile materials?"Betty ignored my pleading, and with her free hand, she jerked Mother Maggie's office door open and stepped inside. "Here he is, Mother. Don't he look cute?""He sure did. You can seat down, Betty," Mothed Maggie mumbled. She stretched her hand towards a young, good-lookin
FACE-OFF WITH THE THREE MUSKETEERS
Agatha didn't bring me more chicken as she promised. Rather, she keeps avoiding me. Since I don't care, I ignored her and the rest of the nuns, spend my days on the grassland, and never bothered to make a friend with any of the orphans. After what seemed like weeks of living a lonely life, I eat my grub which keeps reducing as I grow older, took some glass of juice, stepped out of the orphanage hall, and then walked toward my sanctuary. "Hey, come here, Ugly face," one of the bullies of the orphanage shouted at me and then waves his hand as a sign for me to walk close to them. Since I am not in the mood for chit-chat. I ignored them, hissed and change the direction of my movement. A moment later, the three of them raced closer and stood in my front. "Johnny. I don't have the time for your pranks this morning, please excuse me.""Stay there, Ugly-face. We have some questions to ask you," Benny announced. "What questions?""Where did you see the chickens, sweet and biscuit that we
