Doris and her husband sat opposite to each other in the living room, and that was when the idea popped up on Nathan's mind. "Hey, Doris?" he called and she brought her head up to take a look at him. She had been engrossed on her phone all morning that it was starting to make Nathan worry. He decided to ask what was going on later, after he had spoken his mind first. "Actually, I've been thinking of our plan, and I thought maybe it's only just a dream, you know?" There was a way he laughed that showed a very vivid image of his heart being crumbled in fear. What if it didn't work and all of his enemies--since there were quite a lot of them--all just work together again and defeat him, just like the old times? Worse, what if his defeat became permanent that time? He could not risk getting his wife and their child hurt! "Nathan, calm down. I understand you and it gets really overwhelming too. I know that," Doris said, her voice soothing and relaxing. "But this is what is right, and th

Tori was up in her room thinking about... Well everything! The last time she had seen Doris and her husband had been quite a while. He was still laying in bed trapped between the veil of life and death. How terrifying things must have seemed with Doris. She only wished for one thing and one thing alone. That her suffering and patience hadn't been in vain. At some point, Nathan was supposed to be alive again. He needed to be. Else, all hope would be lost. Her mother had tried so hard to shun her, telling her that her existence in their life had been over and that it was alright. There was no way it was alright. But of course, Tori wouldn't want to argue with her mother. It would eventually become tiring in the end. Unknowingly to Tori, her mother Melissa had been staring tiredly at her, wondering how on earth she could console her daughter and change her mind that whatever had happened wasn't her fault in any way. With a deep sigh, she advanced forward and walked towards her. The do

Tori had received a confirmation message from her mother that her son was alright and that even by mere luck she couldn't explain, the TV and survived as well. She knew she would have to find a befitting punishment for him sooner or later, but decided to let him get off the hook that moment. Perhaps that day even. She had been too excited with her mother's kind words. Finally, she saw through her and was ready to accept all of her flaws. Sure working with Nathan had been risky and dangerous, but so was working elsewhere. She was on her way to her mother's room because she felt it would be nice to appreciate her efforts earlier when a phone all had stopped her abruptly. There was a hall that led to each rooms, a total of five. The first one was hers, and the second to the last, her mother's. She had chosen that room because she felt the most connected to a man she once used to love even though she would never tell her who the man was, but Tori wasn't ready to force her. There were gi

Tori realized what the phone call had meant. When she and Doris had spoken, she and Nathan! It had meant one thing and one thing alone. She had made her choice. Her mother had blocked off all calls, and had even said they dialed a wrong number. But seeing now that everything had been settled, she was going to have to leave for Ettavile. Her heart clenched into a tight fist of worry, and she wondered how it would feel to have to say goodbye to her son again. She was still thinking of the best way to act upon her decision when he walked up towards her, wrapping his hand around her fingers. "Hey mom," he said in a soft voice, and it dawned on her that they seemed deeper than they normally should. Her son was no longer the little boy she had always thought he was. He was looking more tall and less chubby than before, and there was this resemblance that had taken over his face that she just hadn't realized before. He looked more like her mother! "Hey baby," she said, lowering on her kne

Doris was quite astonished at the scenery before her. She had met with her husband, clearly announcing to him that she wanted to become part of a larger community, for both their sakes. And when they'd asked Tori about her opinion, she said it was worth a shot. Although it might bring suspicions, but if she was smart about it, she wouldn't have anything to worry about. She was in the room of a lady, madam Tasha, a well respected woman amongst the Queens and generally in Ettavile. Madam Queen's apartment was far more magnificent than any house she had stepped foot in, and there she was thinking their home had been exquisite. A lovely fragrance her nostrils picked from the living room had been something linked with rose flower mixed with lavender, and clearly it had been richly provided from the fancy flowers decorating the room. A lovely table holding a unique sculpture was placed in the center of living room. The furnitures had been molded just to attract beauty and colorful light

Doris got home that day, falling straight to the sofa, her bag thrown across the handle of the chair. "It's so tiring, Nathan." She groaned in frustration, and Nathan only stared in silence. He said nothing. He knew she would go on about explaining her tale with the fierce madam Tasha. Nathan was familiar with her as well, since he grew up with the Castiels.Minutes later after she had taken in moments to heave in the cold breeze, she began to tell her story. "She's on to something, Nathan. I could feel it in my guts." She said, and just like Nathan had speculated, his words came to past. "You were right. She's probably still working with Fernando," Tasha was a complicated woman, and it hadn't been a surprise that she had nearly lost everything when she defied a well reputable man years ago. At that moment, the man had been a mystery. But now, only a few days ago after a series of investigation, they realized that it had been the work of a powerful man no other than Fernando. "You'

With Tori back in the room, Nathan felt like everything was on its way to going back to normal. They had a better chance with people around them—good people around them.Tori was the first one to speak. "So, what have you guys come up with?" When she asked, all eyes turned and stared at her. "What? There has to be a plan some how?" There was a faint smile on Doris and Nathan's face, but it didn't last long. "It's a pretty risky one," Doris replied. "Besides the one you told me about joining the Queens? I don't think anything could be more dangerous." Doris frowned. "Minutes ago, you assured me that everything would be fine." "Well, what were you expecting me to say? I had to assure you and your husband, to keep your mind at rest. Obviously, this is a pretty dangerous path you're getting yourself into." "I told you so, Doris." Nathan said, angry at a thought he just couldn't comprehend. He was certainly right from the start, and it annoyed him that he had allowed his wife to even

Privilege and advantage are the same thing. Yet often we miss how they are formed from many small benefits that accumulate into large success. It is no coincidence that the brain develops in layers of neurones rather than by singular events, much the same way a house can be built of rows of bricks, hence it takes time to build a true sense of love and trust. Solid learning takes time and a steady, reliable environment. All of these ideas (privilege, success, trust, love and learning) are related because it is how we are wired. Hence in our world money brings the biggest privilege because it buys us the best environment; it is a chance to live in a pocket of plenty - plenty of love, food, water, shelter, family and such. And so the only true way to succeed as a person of privilege, as a person with the advantage of money, is to dedicate yourself to making this a world where everyone has their needs met, where everyone lives well and the "pocket of plenty" is expanded to include all.

He glanced at his watch and frowned. He was late. He picked up the pace, almost running in an attempt to beat time. He had promised his lady that he would be on time and now he was running late.He finally got to the main road and took his place at the bus stop. After waiting for almost two minutes– two extra wasted minutes of his time– a taxi arrived and after a brief negotiation, they were on their way.His phone rang out from his coat pocket and he already knew who would be calling. "I know, I know, this isn't what I planned either. I'm sorry.""You were supposed to be here ten minutes ago!" She complained over the phone."I am really, truly sorry honey. I'll be there in three minutes… five minutes top.""Get here in two minutes!""I'm in a taxi, I'll be there soon." After he hung up, he noticed the cab driver staring at him through the mirror. "Wife's troubles huh?""Yeah.""I can relate. My Mrs is always stressing me out. But there's nothing we can do about it.""Yeah." He repl

"Yes?""I am detective Sam Rogers, and with me is my partner.""James West." They introduced themselves and showed him their badges."How may I help you fine officers?""Mr Thomas Castiel, you are under arrest for the crime of murder on Mr Anakin's late parents.""Are you serious? You are arresting me?""Yes sir. Please sir, I would advise you to come with us quietly to avoid any embarrassment.""Officers, what is going on here?" Evelyn questioned as she walked in.""Nothing ma'am, we would just like to invite your husband for questioning at the station.""Station? Please, what is going on here?""Calm down ma'am, you'll know his offense when he gets to the station.""Do you have any idea what of you're doing? You had the audacity, you had the guts to come into my house….and arrest me?""I'm afraid so. I would also advise you to limit your words sir, because anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law.""Court of law, what the hell are you talking about?""Ju

Frost grew over the windows even as the duvet kept her warm. Isla watched the ice-crystals grow for a while, allowing her brain to be empty, content to exist and be. The morning would bring the beauty of the ice for sure, that crunch under boot and the bold greeting cold air brings. Yet between now and watching her breaths rise as new white-puffed clouds there will be a very cold night. The kind that only stops at the doors of the well-made houses. The cold weather that seeped through any thin cloth to drain the soul, instead feeds the soul of those well wrapped in warm layers of well insulated fabrics.It was the same type of coldness that reached into one's bones, as if their heart were a door left wide open to the icy wind, slamming only to open again. The only thing to do would be to keep moving, keep heading toward home and the steady warmth of the hearth. There was a lot on her mind that night. And she even tried her best to get Nathan off her mind. She wouldn't just stop thinki

Evelyn met with Regina that day. Not for anything else besides their main discussion. She had purposely visited Regina and had the meeting scheduled at her house. She loved being a wedding guest. It's as if rockets have been lit beneath the soul. There is such love right out in the open. Everyone feels free to let their happy flags fly. Cynics are silent at last. Birdsong becomes the music of the quiet reflections. Souls are united. To have an invitation to such an event is a blessing indeed.She saw the woman from afar, shivering in fear. Fear of what though? Well perhaps it was because the head of the Queens was right at her house! She gave a satisfying grin at the moment and continued with her discussion. "Well, so you see why it is important for us to meet up?" She said, a satisfying smile working its way over to her cheeks. Her face had been plastered with bright heavy makeup. Again. Just on purpose. She ignored Regina's shivering and continued. "So we can discuss the wedding

Nathan is alone, thinking about his life when Doris enters. She tries to confront him, but he just wasn't buying. He was terrified of a whole lot of things. The emotion of our reunion sealed as a perfect photograph in my soul.He had felt so very angry. He'd felt so deeply bloody angry with the universe, with God. Yet that is so unfair. Everything he had struggled for is exactly what he asked to do. He had en route to achieve what he set out to achieve. The pain that was to come with it, the brutal brutal suffering of his soul was necessary. There was no other way to learn what he had learned. The anger is because he want to be with her. He want to be with you so much but he had to keep his own counsel, his own direction with only the influence of the divine ether that came to the artist. Artists would get that. They've felt what he felt. But there must come a time, a day, a moment when he would get to say he'd done what he set out to do. He really hoped so. Because that was when we g

Nathan opened the door for Tori to go in and she smiled at his portrayal of a gentleman."Thank you." "You're welcome."She walked in with a small bag in her hand."Here let me help you.""Oh no it's fine, I got it." She replied smiling."I don't like the idea of inconveniencing you in this way."Tori had insisted on following Nathan home after he dropped her at her place. She claims she couldn't leave him alone and let depression take over him."Mr Anakin, I'd like you to know that I have no secret agenda behind this, I just want to make sure you're okay by all times." Tori explained."Why are you saying that? I know you have no hidden agenda Tori.""Then let me be with you in such a crucial time sir… as a confidant." She said with so much sincerity in her tone.Nathan sighed, "as you wish."Now they were together in the apartment, Tori had insisted on preparing dinner but he plainly refused, he still had his mind on Doris and he wondered what kind of things the abductors would be

The door of the station pushed open and barging into the room was Evelyn with the other important women of Ettavile as her minions.Her heels made loud noises as she strolled confidently into the D.P.O's office."Ma'am you can't go in there." A police officer stopped her."My daughter has been kidnapped and I know who did it so move!" She yelled at him, pushing him away from the entrance.Inside the office was Nathan and Tori who had rushed back to the station after their conversation with Evelyn."I know who the culprit is! Which station is it?" Evelyn yelled at Nathan."Uhm, I can't seem to remember the name… the huh.. the one located just at the end of delmer street.""Be there by the time I get there.""Wait what?"Evelyn hung up the phone then faced her group members."We're going to the police station ladies.""What for?" One of the women asked."To report a little rat."Nathan jumped on his feet and picked up his jacket."What's going on?" Tori asked."We have to go back to the

They had no other option than to meet Doris and her husband. The gang stole Drew from us a piece at a time. Every week they pushed him slightly further until not only did he have no morals, he thought that way of thinking was a desirable freedom. His family, we who truly loved him, became his enemy. He looked at us like we were vile to him. Then one day I found him shaking in his bedroom, crying like the sun had been stolen from the sky, his hands slick with another's blood. That's the last time I ever saw the real Drew, in that moment of remorse. After that he sunk so low into his new m.o. that no-one got close unless they were bringing news of the next gang order.Nobody joins a gang without being a lost soul first. No-one goes to a monster for guidance unless it's their only option. Yet I can't underestimate this gang boy, however young he is. Until the head of any serpent is removed, you ignore the body at your peril. Given his youth he is perhaps more reachable than an older boy

Owen has nothing, he talks to his wife. He called his mother, they agree to beg Nathan and Doris. Incels, if women were robots then you could push their buttons and make them dispense sex in the way a coffee machine gives coffee. They aren't robots, or fem-iods, or foids, but people. Your hatred of women shows up in who you are, thus at an instinctive level, below the conscious brain, women will fear you. This fear is there to protect them from having sex with a man who does not love them. Women are people. Their "sex" is a form of bonding with the one they are in love with, male or female. People also tend to love a person who loves themselves, who is at ease with who they are. So maybe work on yourself? Build empathy instead of entitlement and hate? Personally, I only have sex with a guy when I love him. Not a robot.The "Incel" according to the Oxford Dick-tionary of "we know everything about you assholes who hide behind fake names and avatars," is short for "Incompetent Celibates
