《Her Choice | ✓EDITING》Hurt.13
Advertisement
For the past few months I've been working at this cute little diner. Levi isn't too very happy because he says he can take care of me. But secretly I don't want that.
I got a job because if I ever do get a divorce, I want enough money for my own place.
I don't know how many times I've greeted people and asked if I can take their orders. It's kind of tiring job. Walking around all day, writing down orders, taking them to the kitchen, then more orders, then you hear the bell call out your order, and then you have to get the food, take it to the customer. Then it all repeats itself.
Carter had to go out of state for work. Something about catching a drug dealer.
Levi has been like a glue. I know he's just trying to make everything better but I need some space. He's been talking a lot about kids.
He says that he's already 30 and that he wants some babies. Then he smiles and makes me swoon. But then I think about Carter and I feel hopeless.
As I park my car in the marriage counseling lot.
We sit in the office waiting for our counselor.
"How was your day?" He says.
"It's good, how about you?" I smile.
"It was okay. I thought about us having again." He chuckles.
"I already told you Levi. I don't know if I want a baby with...you." I look down.
"Look I know that you're not completely over this Aurora but I want you to think about it at least. I've missed you. You don't act the same anymore. We haven't had sex in months. I've been missing your touch." He whispers.
"Levi I want a di-."

I get cut off by a door opening and our counselor coming in.
"Hey guys, how are you two?" He says and sits in front of us.
"We've been doing alright. Aurora has been a little distant though." Levi says.
"How do you that she's being distant Levi?"
"She doesn't kiss me anymore without me kissing her first, she doesn't hug me, she barely even acknowledges I'm with here, we don't even have sex anymore. We're just two strangers who sleep in the same bed." He says sadly.
"How do you feel about what Levi is saying Aurora?"
"He's right. I've been distant. Because I don't know what I feel anymore. I love Levi but I don't understand what's wrong with me." I say.
"Is this about Cassandra?" He looks at me.
"No Levi it's not about her or what you did with her. It's about me and trust. I don't know if I can trust you. But I want to because I still love you. But then there's also someone else in my heart." I say.
"Did you cheat on me back?" He raises his voice a little.
"I-I no I didn't. I just kissed someone bu-."
"You what?!" He yells and jump a little in my seat.
"Levi why don't you calm down?" Our counselor says.
"No! I'm not calming down. I'm doing everything for you Aurora! I want us to be happy together again. But now you're telling me you kissed and you don't know where your heart belongs?! I'm your husband it should belong to me!" He yells at me.
"Levi I understand but when I kissed the guy I was still vulnerable and sad. I'm sorry for doing that to you." I look at him.
"Who was the guy?" He says.
"But Le-."
"No Aurora, tell me who was the guy."
"It was Carter..." I say.

Summon Imp!
Travel with a newly born demon as he grows and learns in his own world as well as in other worlds as he gets summoned again and again. Usually to die or kill for others in strange and exciting places, but it's never certain what the next one will bring. It has its perks. With each new world comes a new story with new experiences and new lessons. There is always more to see, more to learn and more to know. Maybe, someday, it will all make sense. For now he will just work hard to become stronger, to be useful and, hopefully, survive that way. A coming-of-age story, but different. Things start to slow down to a crawl. Colors blur into one another until my vision is completely white. All I can think is "Shit, not this again!" I hate being summoned. _________________________________ updates once a week until I get more time The idea for this story began in two places. One was the ridiculously rapid pace of gaining power in many novels. Both in games and in novels, I enjoy the struggle of the beginning character, why always the rush? The other was the way many monster or non-human MCs always seem to hurry to become human (again). It always felt like a cheap way to grant the character extra powers without the difficulty of writing a non-standard thought process. Thus I wanted to write the slow(ish) progression of a monster character gaining strength and intelligence, while remaining distinctly non-human. There are no stats, xp or systems, no reincarnated soul or completely formed being to start with - unless I want to make fun of those. While the MC 'evolves', the process takes months if not years to proceed step by little step. Sit down with me and imagine, what would it be like if...

The Final Test
Earth was overtaken by the Calumnia ten years ago and if it weren't for the alien Occisio race who saved the remnants of humanity, Indi's race would have gone extinct. Now, at the age of sixteen, Indi and the other surviving children are about to complete their training and return to Earth to kill the monster that destroyed their world and killed their parents. However, the children on the Occisio's spaceship have been dismissed one by one in training tests and only a few of them remain. Will Indi prove himself skilled enough to become a soldier? Or will he fail humanity as his parents did? This short story (in 13 parts) is a love letter to fans of Ender's Game and Maze Runner. (I may eventually turn this into a novel but for now, I hope you enjoy this 10,000 word story about hope and overcoming one's weakness.) [This story will appear on other websites as well, such as Wattpad and Royal Road.]
