The constellation upon us

The stars speak to her more than other signs. She believed that she had a special connection with the stars that could show her the things that were destined for her—especially the ones she would cherish for the rest of her life.
"Lex," Once again, a little smile escaped her lips.
"If I were Sirius, the brightest star in the dark sky, then you could be my home that I tend to light at night."
Those cheesy words that she always wanted to tell Lexx finally answered. -

Run-away

Being an adult has stolen my happiness—the bliss I used to feel when I was a child, not being burdened by thoughts. Thoughts about the future and my past. Thoughts about the people who had left me along the way; their either had passed away or walked away from me intentionally. -

The breakout zombie

I made it to the nearest mall and it was crawling with zombies I quickly hid under a counter but I quickly discovered to my suprise that there was a zombie hiding exactly where I was, shocked, my legs became stuck and I felt like the whole world was against me. Surprisingly, the female zombie turned to me and whispered to me “when I distract the other zombies, I need you to quickly move around and grab what you came for” in my state of ever growing shock I just nodded.-

Aislah stood there frozen because, Larke, the friend that she came to know looked the same, in height. He was an elf--no, a dwarf, maybe?! She was scared to know this and felt happy at the same time knowing that he was doing fine. Perhaps the life that she knew wasn't always right after all. She was hoping this was all dream, because this can't be real.
'L-arke! It was you right? And I wasn't dreaming?' she asked just to make sure that she heard him right.-

“Oh! And have these, for your troubles.” The old man gave them, again two fortune cookies.
Elias could only stare at him as he accepted the cookies. With that, the old man left and went home, leaving the two friends in another awkward silence. Danica fidgeted, unsure what to say.
Elias thought “Let fate decide, whatever,” then broke one cookie to his friend’s shock.-

The sound I hear with my hands

When Timothy was 12 years old something very strange happened to him, when he raised his hands and closed his eyes he could hear the breeze gently rolling through the city. For him that moment was unique, he had never been able to hear anything and this was the first time that this sensation invaded his body, excited he ran home and asked his mother to please speak out loud, Margot a little confused, began to speak without asking Timothy anything, meanwhile he raised his hands near his mother's face and closed his eyes.-
