“Finn! Behind you!” A shrill scream broke through the silence like a light slices through the darkness.
Finn didn’t have time to question the warning, he just acted. He stood up quickly using his arms as ...
It was a Monday morning like any other when Jason walked into the office, grabbing a cup of coffee from the break room before settling in at his desk. As he booted up his computer, his stomach already felt tight with anxiety - he had been dreading this day for weeks.
Just last month, the company had undergone a major restructuring, and rumors were swirling that layoffs were imminent. Jason had t...
The memories flooded back as I sat in my office, the dim light casting long shadows across the room. The case that led to my downfall replayed in my mind like a haunting movie. A teenage girl, terrified and broken, her trust shattered by the one man who should have protected her.
I leaned back in my chair, my fingers tapping a restless rhythm against the wooden desk. The acrid taste of regret l...

Lenny took his seat across from Brooklyn’s desk.
“So,” Lenny began, “what’s this about?”
Brooklyn sighed before starting, “Well… I’ve been noticing you haven’t been doing what I’ve ...
‘We don’t need useless people’
Useless…?
Useless, useless, useless, useless, useless,
All my life, that was all I heard. I wasn’t the genius like my younger brother nor was crazy athlete like my sister.

But there was nothing wrong with being normal, it just means people have low expecta...
