Sarah grabbed her pillow and hugged it while crying. She cried, “Why... Why can’t I be with Brother Mike? “ She then continued crying. Although she had seen Mike and Alice kissing many times, the thing she saw today was too much for her. She couldn’t even hold her emotions for Mike. She loved him since the first time they talked. Sarah still remembered how a small girl who had lost her parents in an accident got cast out in the streets. Luckily, a kind woman took her to the orphanage, from where she was taken by Mike’s father. Although she hated everyone in Mike’s family, because they saw her as a commodity. When she reached Mike’s house, she came to know that the reason they took her in was because Mike didn’t have someone to play with.
This caused the young Sarah to hate Mike even more. Because of Mike, she lost her friends in the orphanage and had to come to this place, where everything wa
Tears flowed down Sarah’s face. She rushed upstairs, back to her room. She didn’t understand the reason Mike rejected her. He loved her, so why? Was it because there was Alice, since she was Mike’s girlfriend?She wiped her tears away, since she knew what to do.Meanwhile, back to Mike. His heart was in a conflict. He didn’t want to hurt any of them, Sarah and Alice. With the conflicted heart, I went to the company; because that was the only place I could go to clear my mind. I took my car to the company. I found Jack as soon as I entered the company. He was talking with a group of lawyers, who were to fight in favour of us, in the courtroom.As soon as he saw me, he stood up and came to me. He then introduced me to those lawyers sitting in the conference hall.I sat at the head of the table, and tapped on the table and asked, “So what’s the situation of the Carters? “ Jack chu
The text was enough to clear my worries. I walked out of the room. Her text reminded me of the trip I had planned. Since it was getting dark, I returned to the kitchen, where I and Alice had our dinner. For dinner, we had rice and fish. Alice had made the dinner , so I said nothing about how sticky the rice was, nor how raw the fish was. So when she asked me, “Is the food good? “ I stuffed my mouth with rice and fish, and nodded my head furiously. I couldn’t say that the food she made was sticky and not well cooked.Seeing my nod, Alice looked at me suspiciously and took a bite of the food on her plate. She looked at me and directly spat the food on her plate. She hurriedly drank the water. Frowning at me, she said, “How come you are still eating this sh*t? “I ate another spoonful of rice and said, “This ain’t that bad.. I have eaten worse food, and yours isn’t anywhere near that leve
Taking the meat that I cut from the deer, I returned to the camp. Alice and both of our mothers were sitting around the newly built campfire. My and Alice’s dad had returned to the woods a long time ago. It was getting dark, so we cooked the meat and ate it. Then we talked with each other till midnight. The talk was all about what we all were doing nowadays. Both, mine and Alice’s fathers were proud of me for playing with Carters.I didn’t have pride in my eyes. You might think I might have. I don’t know why, but I felt in my heart; Something is wrong. But ignoring the feeling I had, I continued talking with my and Alice’s parents; And soon we retired for the day and returned to our own camps. After the uneventful night passed, morning came quickly. We got ready and started doing our own work. We had already discussed this yesterday, each of us would do the work decided yesterday.The camping wasn&rsquo
My body trembled when I saw Alice on the ground. Her body was almost pale, and the pooled blood spread on the road. Ever her clothes had turned red because of the blood. I rushed towards her, and raising her head a little, I rested it on my lap. Then I repeatedly called her, “Alice.. Alice, get up.. “ I tried everything I could do, but she didn’t wake up. Tears formed in my eyes and dripped down my eyes, streaming down my face. I brought my lips on top of her head and kissed her forehead. My tears fell on Alice’s face.A laughter echoed the road. It belonged to James. Raising my head, I looked at him with fury. Only a single sentence was on my mind. ‘ He killed Alice. ‘Even though he was also the one who killed my and Alice’s parents too; But my mind was almost blank. Only the fact that James had killed Alice remained in my mind.I stood up and rushed towards James. James looked at m
‘Maybe this is what it is to be dead. Floating around in the darkness for an infinite time. ‘, I thought. I have been floating in this darkness for some years now. You all might think, how do I know? It’s easy. If you count the seconds that you have spent, it is easy to know how much time you have spent in such places, where time cannot be perceived. Counting ain’t that hard.One minute has sixty seconds and one hour has sixty minutes. So in one hour there are three thousand six hundred seconds. And in a day, there are twenty-four hours. If you do the maths, it means Eighty-six thousand four hundred seconds a day. A year has three hundred and sixty-five days, so the number of seconds a year has been thirty-one million five hundred thirty-six thousand. And this is the seconds in a year. I have spent nearly four years in this dark world. So, you might understand the astronomical figure.‘Maybe this is the
Some unknown force sucked my soul inside a space crack. It was like I became unconscious when I was getting sucked, because I don’t remember what happened when I got sucked into the space crack. When I was conscious, I laid on the ground. There was sand and I could feel my body for the first time in eleven years as a soul. I touched my body.I was excited, but that’s when the same church bell like sound came from the front. This was the first time I noticed my surroundings. It was like I was in some sort of palace. It was weird and had settings similar to that of a haunted house. The palace was at the centre of a sea, and to reach the centre ; There was a path that passed on top of the water surface.The place where I woke up was at the far end of the path to the palace. I was curious about the existence of this palace, so I walked towards it. Wind howled as I stepped towards the palace; the sea, which was calm at first,
“Chitragupta... I’ve heard this name. Isn’t it a Hindu mythological character? “, I pondered. Chitragupta smiled and said, “ Yeah, I am the same one you thought of.” With a sigh, I thought in my heart, ‘So is this hell? I really came to hell. ‘Chitragupta chuckled and said, “No.. This isn’t hell. Believe me, if you were in hell, we might torture as soon as you entered. But you aren’t.. “ It surprised me, not because of what Chitragupta had said, but because I never spoke out loud. So how come he answered me? That’s weird. I dropped the idea of asking him how he knew what I thought.But it seemed like Chitragupta had already known what I was thinking. He said with a sagely smile, “It’s because I am manasaputra of the creator of this world, Lord Brahma. You might know him? Right? “ I nodded, because I have heard of this name. When this nam
Lord Yama laughed out loud, when he looked at my frightened look. Still petting the dogs, he raised one of his weapons, Noose, and brought it near his right shoulder. Then he did something I least expected. He started scratching his shoulders with a deadly weapon. This even made me doubt the life of gods and mortals.While he started laughing and said, “Don’t look at me like that. I am not some demon who would gobble you up. “ As soon as he said those words, the dogs sitting calmly beside the throne growled while looking at me. Lord Yama looked serious, and he said in a serious tone, “But I can’t tell about these two.. They might as well eat you. Hahaha.. “ Then he started laughing out loud like a maniac. I didn’t even find that funny. How the f*ck did this guy thought it was funny.Even the book holding assistant of Lord Yama, Chitragupta, didn’t find those words funny. He just shook
She tried opening the door of my car. But unfortunately for her, she did not know, that only I can open that car, unless I have given the permission to use it to others. I had only given that permission to the girls, and the car was directly under the control of A1. So, there was no chance that Sam could open that door and sit inside. And now seeing her trying to open the door and then finally looking at me with a stupid look, made me almost laugh out loud. But I didn’t, because she had noticed that my expression was changing. So I instead looked down and ran towards the car. Then I opened the door after the finger print recognition.Sam was silent and sat down in the car without speaking. But when she sat inside the car, she gasped in surprise. She was surprised when she looked at the features inside the car. She looked at me with excitement in her eyes and asked, “This model.. Is this out for sale yet?” Shaking my head, I replied, &ldqu
T1 helped with successfully implanting the Bio-chip on the back of my neck. I could just sit down and grit my teeth, as I felt a jarring pain at the back of my head. It was as if every cell of my brain was being destroyed and made again. But all of it was just my imagination, since I saw the status of my brain on the screen, from the corner of my eyes. And according to the data’s being displayed, everything was okay with my brain, except because my brain was in a state of virtual activity. Being in virtual activity simply means that because of some external factors, the brain is forced into a situation which is just a made up factor made by the brain, because of that external force. And the external force for me was the Bio-chip placed on my neck.A1’s holographic figure looked at me with a worried look. Obviously only her face was visible, as she had just show her head, instead of her entire body, as she usually did. I smiled as I gave her a r
After the dinner, I signed the contract with Elena and Daisy. Then the girls and I shared the bed and had a sleepless night. Many days passed like this. I had been doing the same thing these days. Studying nanotechnology, designing the training room, upgrading the already made products. I even designed the upgraded version of smart prosthesis. The new version of smart prosthesis was actually for those, who were paralysed. It took me a lot of time to read many books about neurology, including the anatomy and physiology of brain. I had to study several books on bio-chips. Those were some of the top secret files of several countries, which I got access to, thanks to A1.After several thesis made by top biotech scientists of this world, I could learn a thing or two about the bio-chips. Bio-chips can control anything with our brain. Obviously those things should be someway attached to the circuit of the bio-chip. Only when you form a closed circuit with the bio
I immediately tried my best to calm him down, but all of it was in vain. That’s when, A1 thought of something. She said in my ears, “Leave it to me, Mike. “ I had been listening to music, while I was reading those books on nanotechnology. It just made me relax, because reading such books for a long time was anything but entertaining. If not for the music that I was hearing, I might have been bored a long time ago. I hummed in response, which was ignored by the lawyer Uncle. A1 suddenly projected herself out of my smart watch, as a holographic loli figure.I was amazed. Not a loli-con myself, but I understand a beauty just with a glance. Similarly, I can understand if a person would look beautiful from looking at her younger version. That’s my talent, ahem. A1 started speaking to the surprised lawyer uncle, “Hello Mr. Simmons. I am A1, an intelligent program created by Mike. That voice belonged to me. And as we are talkin
I don’t know who it was, but when we got out of the airport, I found a familiar black car. It was obviously Hexon, that I had made. To be more specific, this was the car, I had given to the girls, and mom, to travel. Seeing these two cars out, I narrowed my eyes, thinking how these cars were here. Soon, I found out the reason. It was Mr and Mrs Jones. Seeing her father and mother, Mia immediately rushed towards them with a smile, and hugged them. Her parents smiled as they hugged her back. Even the girls, mom and I couldn’t hold back our smile, when we saw this scene.When she noticed the awkward silence around her, Mia poked her tongue out and then loosened her parents from her hug. It was a minute change, but I saw the expression of relief on the face of Mr Jones. Feeling someone’s gaze upon him, Mr Jones looked at me awkwardly, talking to me with his eyes. Actually, it was a more like a way. We men talked to each other about something
While I walked, I saw a face, which I had seen a long time ago. It was the assistant of Mr. Arnab Singh. Arnab Singh, the same guy, from whom I had bought that flying surf board that day, three years ago. I still remembered that lady, who brought coffee for me that day, or was it tea? Her face had changed a little. Just when I saw her three years ago, she didn’t look mature. But now, she had that otherworldly aura, which screamed maturity. And truth be told, she was still beautiful like how she was three years ago.But I did not know if she still remembered me. I mean, who would remember a person, whom they have met three years ago? That’s not possible, unless the person has a sharp memory. So I walked away, saying nothing. If I asked her, and she still doesn’t remember me, that would be very awkward. So yeah, better prevent that situation from happening. So I just did that. I walked past her. But to my surprise, when I looked at he
Saying that, I walked out of the confinement cell, leaving the confused Aeris behind. Just when I was far enough, I heard him mutter something. But I ignored his words. Aeris was gritting his teeth. He understood that one of his people tried to destroy some city, but he failed. Aeris felt lost, since he didn’t know who that person was. Aeris still has a wife, an angel, whom he had married, when he joined the spy forces of the Heaven. She was one of his colleagues, and then they started liking each other. And finally, after three years of relationship, they married each other, with the blessings of The Lord God.The night of the wedding, his wife went to the holy shrine, to get the blessings of the Lord. And the next day when she arrived, she was happy, yet different. Thanks to the blessings of the Lord God, they were happy in their life. That’s when Aeris got this mission, of infiltrating the human world, and cause chaos, and prepare the world
But imagine my surprise when Celia finally said, “One day. “ So I asked her again, “One day?” To which she nodded. I sighed in relief. It was good that only a day had passed since the tsunami. That’s when I remembered about the tsunami and asked her, “What about the tsunami and those people?” Celia smiled and replied, “They are all fine. You could stop the tsunami, but by the end, you had fallen unconscious. Thankfully, a mother and son duo saw you, and took care of you, till dad and his team arrived there. “ I sighed in relief, when I heard how I had stopped the Tsunami waves, from hitting the coast of XX city and saving thousands of lives. But when I heard the latter part, I wanted to meet the son and mother duo, who had taken care of me.That’s when Celia told me that the others had also arrived here as soon as they could. Obviously, it was Celia, who had informed them, just as she had ended her call with he
So that’s what I did. I rushed towards the sea. Unknown to me, a small boy pointed towards the direction where he saw a man in a black metal suit disappear. He pointed as he pulled his mother to tell her. The mother was pale in fright because of the nearing tsunami waves, which would soon hit the coast and would destroy everything. It would swallow people, including both the son and mother duo. She was a single mother, who took care of our son. And since it was the vacation of her son, she had taken him to Mumbai, the coastal metropolitan city. If not for bringing him here, both of them might have been safe. It was pointless to think about the past since neither the past nor the present can change.When she saw her son pointing towards a black shadow, which was disappearing soon. She heard his words, amongst the cries of others who were rushing to find cover, since no rescue can be done anymore. And they could only wait to brace for the impact. If th
