“I got out just in time! Half of the farm is on fire! I need to rescue the animals!” “OH NO! Grandma! Please don’t go back in there! It’s not safe!” “My donkey! I have to go, Liana. Bye!” My grandma hung up suddenly and I was scared out of my mind. Somehow, her farm had caught on fire and I was starting to think that it was all my fault even though I lived about ten miles away. You see.. something...

Recently, it’d felt like people were following me. I always felt a presence around me whenever I left the house but when I turned to search for and catch a culprit, there was always no one. I always close my room curtains nowadays because whenever I open them, I can feel eyes watching me.  I never saw anyone but I could always feel them.  I should’ve told my parents and perhaps I should’...

Lights were flickering in my house like it was a club. And what was that that I was hearing? Could it be music? I stopped walking and ran straight home only to meet half of the school in my house! Drinking, dancing and partying!  What!!?? My crush, Andy, the popular girls; Chloe and her friends who always picked on me and all the cool and popular high school kids I wanted to be like were part...

Hi, my name is Roxy and you might be wondering why I’m lying on the floor of the biggest hotel in Texas, the Clarion Hotel. I’m not unconscious, but I want them to believe I am. Before I tell you why, like and subscribe for more dramatic stories. You see, my mom died from a strange illness when I was just thirteen.  The only thing she left was a tiny apartment in Texas and her ginger cat Moos...

“Yes, you’re right. Celebrities behave like that sometimes, it’s totally normal for us. Hey, you there, come here!” I didn’t turn around. Obviously, Mikaela couldn’t be referring to me like that, right? “Hello! Brunette over there, I’m talking to you!” I turned around because I was the only brunette in the makeup room, “Me?” “Yes, you, duh! We’re just three here, who else would I be referring to?...

“Hahaha what is that?” “It’s a miniature wedding dress! I’m going to put it on my Barbie!” “You’re thirteen years old and you still play with Barbie dolls?” “That doesn’t look like a dress. It looks like tissue paper arranged in a strange way.” “Now students, this is no way to speak to Evelyn during our sewing class. Your dress is very beautiful dear. In fact, I think it’s magical! Don’t worry abo...

“And where exactly do you think you’re going? Looking and smelling like that?” “God, mom! Not again! I’m just heading to school, why won’t you just let me be?” “Not like that, you’re not! Now go back to your room, take a shower and wash your hair! You smell like a homeless person!” “I don’t mind”, I shrugged, “Why does it bother you so much? It’s not your body”.  “Move!” Not the shower again!...

So there’s ordinary rich, and then there’s rich, rich. Unfortunately, I was just ordinary rich – or I guess you could say fortunately – if you’re poor. Anyway, my mom and dad were corporate lawyers and I lived with them and my older sister Cindy who was more gorgeous than the most attractive model you can think of. “Aubree, don’t worry. It’s because you’re still growing. You’re only fifteen and I’...

Why live with evil geniuses if you can’t learn to be an evil genius yourself?   Have you ever heard that saying? Well, now you have! Listen carefully and watch closely as I show you how I outsmarted a full family of evil geniuses!  And who knows? Perhaps if you watch attentively till the end, you might be able to grab a thing or two. And no one will be able to take advantage of you. Ever...

“Mom? Dad? Angelica? Someone open the door!” I knocked, rang the doorbell, banged on the windows but nothing. I didn’t have the keys to my house because someone was always home. I should have probably just sat on my doorstep and waited but instead I decided to go to my neighbor’s house. It was a weird place by the way – the windows were tinted and it was very hard to see what was going on in there...

“Stephan dear, where’s that golden bracelet I bought when we traveled to Egypt?” “I don’t know mum, you must have misplaced it again. Honestly, what’s the need of buying expensive jewelry if you never wear them? You just keep misplacing everything.” She sat in front of her enormous dressing mirror which had gold edges, and was having her makeup done by Joan Marpier, the most famous and most well k...

"Where am I?" Suddenly, memories flooded my thoughts: the party, the girls, the accident. "Johnny!" Mom hugged me. "You're finally awake," she sobbed. "Francine, let him breathe!" Dad's jovial voice filled the room.  "I must say, he does look better with those bandages," Hillary, my sister who was two years old than me, smirked, before she gave me a hug. An older lady in a white coat walked i...

"What on earth are you wearing? You can't go to school looking like that! Take it off immediately!" Mom screeched. The horrified look on her face would make you think she'd caught me trying to sneak out in a skimpy outfit. Truth was, I was wearing a beautiful dress and had my hair tied in a ponytail. "And since when is your hair that long? And you dyed it?" I'd worn a beanie all summer. Mom had no...

I tried to hold on to the bar as much as I could with my sweaty hands, until they slipped. My feet were now the only thing holding me from plummeting into the piranha infested waters below. I heard a click, and before I knew it, arrows were flying at my face. One grazed my ear, but I somehow managed to climb to safety. Whose idea was it to make training courses this realistic?! Remember to hit tho...

“Hey Harry, looking good today buddy. What am I even saying? You look good every single day, you lucky, handsome dude!” Someone said to me as I walked past him. I turned around and flashed him a smile, along with a thumbs-up sign. I really appreciated compliments. I continued to walk until I got to the hot-dog stand. I was hungry and wanted to grab a hot dog. A few meters away from me and sitting...

Hi, my name is Jane, and I would like to tell you a story. I was just an average girl who enjoyed her morning walks, coffee and spending an unnecessary amount of time on the internet looking up pictures of cute dogs.  If I could, I would have bought them all, but my boyfriend was allergic, at least that’s what he said. I’ve always suspected that he was secretly afraid of dogs. Either that or...

“Princess Charlotte, here are your strawberries.” “Thank you.” “And here are your fluffy slippers. Would you like a foot massage this morning?” “Yes please.” “Princess, your father has a meeting with the President of France this morning and he’d like you to meet him so please get ready right after breakfast.” “Okay.” This was a snippet of my life at twelve years old. I was a princess with a life m...

The airport officers watched as the woman walked towards them. It was obvious from the clothes she was wearing and the expensive purse she was carrying, that she was very wealthy. “Wow, just look at her! Oh to be as rich and famous as her!” “Yeah, I know, I’d be happy with half of her money!” “Sshh!” The woman approached the x-ray machine, one of the officers went to check her, whilst the other st...

“You’re so cute Georgina!” Teddy bear “Thank you teddy!” “Yes and your curly hair is so lovely.” Doll “Thank you Barbie!” “Mom, dad, she’s talking to her stuff again!” My brother never understood anything... and he was so so annoying. “But they’re talking back! Can’t you hear them?” “Oh my gosh you’re such a weirdo! MOM!” I was only about five years old and for a while I didn’t know that I was the...

"Incoming! Female, early forties, motor vehicle accident." Carrie the head nurse shouted from her station. "I'll take her." I said as I walked towards the emergency entrance where I knew the ambulance would arrive any minute. My shift at Woodvale Grove hospital had just started and she was going to be my first patient for the day. "Good morning Doctor Hernandez, surprised to see you here this earl...

“Ah yes another family reunion, where I am completely ignored,” I thought as I sat on the sofa. Grandad sat next to me, "Well, I know that this isn't your cup of tea, so I've got a job for you if you want it." "Sure, Grandad, what is it?" "I'll pay you $150 to clean the attic." As I got up Grandad called behind me,"If you find anything interesting up there you can keep it. We'll call it your bonus...

It was a difficult journey but I’d finally arrived at my destination. This was the third time I’d run away from my parents and I really felt like it was going to be the last.  Something told me that this year would be the end of my troubles, after all I turned eighteen this year so for all intents and purposes, I was a full fledged adult.  My parents refused to understand this though, th...

I woke up from bright light shining directly into my eyes. So many thoughts were running through my mind. Why’s this couch wet? Who’s couch is this? Where am I? I threw my jacket on and found my way to the front door, but before I left I took a peek in the mirror. My face was covered in lipstick stains and my arms were covered in phone numbers. God, I love my life. If you enjoy this story, remembe...

“Mom, I want this now!” “No dear. I can’t afford it right now!” “You’re the worst mom in the world! You never buy me anything I want because you hate me!” I was only nine years old but those words were enough to make my mom start crying in the toy store. She had taken me there to buy me something small because I had gotten an A+ on my Math test – but I didn’t want something small. I wanted this su...

“Dude, you’re such a great swimmer”. My friends cheered for me as I showed off my swimming expertise. “How did you learn to swim so well?” “The same way I learned to do every other sport so well”. “Your parents”. “Yeah”.  “It's too bad all that sport expertise is wasted on a fat boy like you”. My dad suddenly materialized from somewhere, forcing us all out of the pool. “Why don’t you go show...
