《Mistake // Jonah Marais》T W E N T Y - N I N E

"Do you really have to go?" I asked my parents, already annoyed at the fact that they were leaving once again to go out on their own. I hate being stuffed up in this tiny house with nothing to keep my occupied besides my phone.
"We'll be back before you know it," My mother smiled, "Invite over a friend, if you would like. We won't be as late as we usually are, I can promise you that."
"Whatever, have fun, I guess." I rolled my eyes and stomped down the hallway to my room, making sure to slam the door shut.
I hated being mean to my parents but I was already agitated, and my parents leaving once again was making it worse.
Ten minutes later came a knock on my front door. Being the suspicious person I am, I grabbed the pepper spray I kept in my nightstand drawer and made my way back down the hallway. I opened it to reveal the man dressed up in an officers uniform.
"Hi, are you Brinley Firley?" He asked, receiving a nod in reply. "May I come inside?"
"Uhm, sure..." I replied, shutting the door behind him and led him to my living room. We both took a seat on my couch and I knew I was about to receive new I didn't want.
"I hate to have to be the one to say this," He took his cap off with a sorrowful look in his eyes, "You're parents were in a terrible accident on the highway. They were air-cared to the hospital... It doesn't look like they'll make it. I'm so terrible sorry."
There were now tears streaming down my eyes. My voice was barely audible as I spoke, "No..."
"No!" I screamed, pounding my fist against the headboard of Jonah's guest bed.

I heard footsteps run down the hallway and hurriedly open my door. A pair of arms picked me up and pulled me into their lap.
"Brin... Shh, it's okay." Jonah a familiar voice soothed, running his hand through my hair, "It's okay. It's just a dream, don't be scared, I'm here."
The tears streaming down my face kept falling and I couldn't help it, they wouldn't stop. My body was shaking as the memories of the night I lost my parents kept coming back.
These nights used to be common, but I rarely had them anymore. So, the fact that I had one tonight was weird. I felt extremely embarrassed since I woke Jonah up.
"I'm sorry..." I muttered, pushing my head deeper into Jonah's chest as he rocked us back in forth in an attempt to calm me down.
"Don't be. I don't know what happened, but I'll spend the rest of the night with you." He laid us back against the pillows and covered my calming body with the blanket.
He was still holding me, and I wasn't objecting. I felt safe, like I finally had someone who was going to make sure I was okay.
My eyes got heavy, and Jonah wiped the tears away from my face and pulled me closer. Which was nearly impossible since we were already very close.
"Go to sleep."
And I did.

Starchild
“It’s life’s illusions I recall. I really don’t know life at all.” from the song, Both Sides Now, by Joni Mitchell Starchild is an adventure novel set within an understanding of reality that is rooted in Eastern spiritual traditions.It takes as its starting point experiments in remote viewing that were genuinely undertaken by the American military in the nineteen-nineties under the name of the Stargate Project. It then imagines how a more advanced attempt to weaponise the capabilities of consciousness might have been developed in the present day.The story then explores how Ultimate Reality might respond to such a threat.Deep, elemental forces thus bring together Samantha Martin and Sahadeva Varma, old colleagues from the Stargate Project, to avert the apocalyptic consequences of this military attempt to weaponise consciousness. This fast-paced story spans genres including romance, action, adventure, science fiction and more. Although this story is based on concepts drawn from established spiritual traditions, these have sometimes been extrapolated to the point of very extreme speculation for the needs of an adventure story.Much of the underlying philosophy, however, as explained in the dharma talks given by Samantha Martin, is paraphrased from the guidance of respected spiritual teachers. Scheduling: Starchild is a previously unpublished novel of one hundred thousand words which was serialised in weekly instalments over twenty-five weeks from 15th November 2021 to the 29th April 2022. Each instalment contains five chapters – an average of approximately four thousand words in each instalment. Acknowledgements: All the mandala images, with one exception, were drawn by Brian Huggett using the Spirality mandala drawing application.
