《Blue Road》Episode 13 (Part 3)

The group made it inside Ken and Kelly’s room in the apartment complex. Richard tried to wipe his nonexistent feet on the purple doormat as he went to make himself at home while waiting for the coast to be clear. He looked around and noticed the simple scenery once Kelly turned on the lights. The brown wooden floors shined from the ceiling fan; the walls were pastel-colored green.
Richard didn’t focus on it for long, though. He turned as Kelly threw a hard slap across Ken’s face. Silence embodied the area shortly after.
“What were you thinking?” Kelly broke the silence. “Trying to kill Richard like that?”
You knew? Someone must’ve told you, or did she notice my earlier actions as they gave it away? Ken thought, rubbing his cheek. “Well, answer me this, why do you keep going out to party and drink?”
“I told you, to get rid of stress!” Kelly thundered. “Why do you always take things the wrong way?”
“It’s not healthy!”
“Don’t change the subject. Why would you try to kill this guy? What did he do to you?”
“This guy tried to put the moves on you! Not only that, but he also—”
“Stop fighting.” A familiar voice ordered them.
Ken and Kelly paused. Their eyes widened as they searched for the source of the voice. The voice told them again, as the two turned to face Richard. His eyes were a different shade of blue. Not only that, but the voice coming out of his mouth sounded different, but also familiar.
That voice... “A—Ashley?” They both cried in unison.
“Why are you still doing this, even after what happened?” Ashley questioned. “I don’t like seeing you guys so upset like this! So, could you please just stop?”

No way, Ashley made it. But how is she doing that? Fawn thought to herself.
Ashley continued. “I came here to see how things were going ever since I disappeared from this world. I was hoping to patch things up between you two.” She looked down at the floor, eyes getting misty-eyed. “But, it seems like you haven’t moved on and gotten over my demise, and it’s awful seeing you like this.” She looked back up to face her parents. “I wanted you two to get along again without having to worry about me. Wouldn’t you agree, mom and dad?”
Ken and Kelly stayed silent, unsure of how to respond. They looked away from each other, feeling terrible for what they’ve said and done up until this point.
Kelly wanted to get her mind off the incident, run away from the conflict, and not confront it head-on. Ken suppressed his emotions and refused to open up, not wanting to get close or show weakness. It ended up hurting both of them in the long run. Neither knew how to move past it or admit to the other how wrong they were acting prior.
Ken cleared his throat. “Look, I know you got a good reason to be upset with me. I was inconsiderate and stupid and...”
“No, I was reckless and foolish.” Kelly insisted. “I made you worry about me, and instead of talking to you about it, I just tried to get rid of my problems by doing silly things. I’m sorry.”
“I’m sorry too.”
“Do you think we can work things out after all?”
“Yeah, I do.”
Ashley left Richard’s body and floated over to her parents, as the three went into a group hug.
Fawn and Richard couldn’t help but smile.
Fawn mentioned after everything those guys had been through. It was great to witness a happy family again. Happy family. Richard stared at his hands. His eyes got watery, but he said nothing.

The End Of Life
"THE END IS HERE"
8 319The Sea of Destiny
[Let me be straight with you. This is trash, like old dime store novel trash. Don't expect grandiose writing, anything profound, or much beyond being free of spelling errors. Like my profile says, it’s hopefully like a salty snack, decent and satisfying for people looking for this kind of thing (at least that's my hope). It is simple, weird, and most likely growing in ridiculousness as it rapidly escalates.] Michael just wants to get away after a rough breakup. He figures some time alone cruising on a sick jet ski will help clear his head. After a small series of mishaps he winds up as humanities last hope adrift at sea after nuclear devastation destroys the mainland. Will he be able to solve the mystery of the bowl of the ancients before nuclear winter freezes over his dwindling food supply? Who are these mysterious women he keeps meeting, and will he even care about the talents they bring to the table, or will he be too focused on how they keep ruining his carefully laid plans for survival at sea? Read this cheesy short story to see for yourself, and discover the true mystery behind the hand of fate.
8 106Villain To Be
Lady Emilia Rose Fireheart should have been the rival character in the game “Novelty of Nobility” but because the current Lady is a reincarnated person, she marvelously messed things up. -Inspired by the novel An Otome Game's Burikko Villainess Turned into a Magic Otaku and other similar works. -Cover art was googled. Well, the monsters depicted in this story were mostly inspired by Monster Hunter so... yey~
8 394Saiyan In a Fantasy World
First of all I'm writing for fun and I do not have a set schedule. Secondly I am releasing the Prologue as a test and if it gets good reviews I will carry on writing . Also if haven’t read/watched Overlord or Dragon Ball then you probably won’t understand a lot of this so I recommend doing so. My native language is English but there will probably be some mistakes so let me know if you find any. This is my first fiction so any advice is welcomed. Disclaimer:I do not own Dragon Ball or Overlord Other Disclaimer: I also do not own the cover art. If the owner wants me to take it down please tell me and I will do so immediately.
