《In the Afternoon》Mágoa
Advertisement
There's an ancient word:
Mágoa.
A heart breaking feeling that leaves long lasting traces.
Visible in gestures and facial expressions.
I experience Mágoa often.
Whenever another of the suitors my mother selected for me kisses my hand, complimenting my beauty.
Whenever someone glances over their shoulder my way.
Whenever someone smiles to me in a certain way.
It all reminds me of the day I first met you.
When I glanced towards you, and you promptly looked towards the ground in embarrassment.
But I'd seen the way you looked at me.
I saw the slight flush of pink that came to your cheeks.
It's been a year.
And I'm convinced no one will ever look at me the same way again.
So instead,
I'll just be at peace with Mágoa.
And pray that one day the torture will cease.

Doctored Chance: The Unpleasant Preceding of "Pajama Boy" and What Drove Him to Murder
I, Mick Chadwick, regret to inform my readers that this memoir contains nothing but the truth, which in the case of Tobias MacClain, most ridiculed as Pajama Boy, is far from pleasant. If you seek to relate to a hero more than to aspire to them and have the stomach for unpleasant things such as a hero left for dead, villainous scars, bomb threats, and murderous intent, then look no further. All of these gruesome things and more await from my research, and though I do not wish them on any man or woman, I cannot bear this burden on my own much longer. In the words of Tobias MacClain himself, "Sometimes, a villainous act can cause the greatest good." I hope that all my villainous acts of sneaking, blackmailing, diary-reading, and grave-digging, among others, will be redeemed as I present this complete and truthful memoir to the world, and with any luck, open eyes to the truth of what we call "villainy". Doctored Chance: The Unpleasant Preceding of "Pajama Boy" and What Drove Him to Murder ********* MATURE FILTER IS FOR:- violence- graphic imagery (blood, burns, fairly dark headspaces)- cartoon depiction of burn scars for visual aid Despite graphics, Mick Chadwick's writing keeps Mr. MacClain's terrible tale light somehow. This is foremostly a comedy.
