This is the beginning of three or four posts about the different pets our family has had over the years. Our first set of dogs ironically came from Elmar's family's dog.

The Zwillings Part 6
In which we run. Dedicated to Chae. And at that, a miracle opened her eyes for the first time. The girl shifted in the bed, sitting up slowly. He eyes fluttered, and she looked around, yawning.

The Zwillings Part 5
In which we are saved. Dedicated to the rebel of the group. They knew they were about to die. The boy looked around, assessing his battleground.

The Zwillings, Chapter 1
The pittering and pattering of the harsh winter rain fell loudly on the dark alleyways of Atlanta, but the rain wasn’t the only sound that cold and windy night.

All of these … Continue reading The Zwillings, Chapter 1

That ant looked so innocent to my wondering two-year-old eyes. Suddenly, it disappeared from view over the side of the booster.

Fake Stories from my childhood.
so, you might be wondering about the title. I got this idea from a Calvin and Hobbes strip, where Calvin writes an autobiography with some parts completely made up.

Predator, Chapter 2: Unexpected Visitors
note: I am writing this all on libreoffice, then copy-pasting Havirk walked home with the other slaves. They all slept in a small hall on the west side of town, all crammed together into about fifty square meters.
