Sadly, she laid the two-carat diamond band on the table in front of him. She kissed his cheek and whispered in his ear, ‘I pawned the real one ten years ago, dear, this one is as fake as our marriage was.’

Photograph
This exact moment in time and arrangement of scenery captured through the lens of the camera by the simple click of a button will soon be lost and unattainable. There’s always reminiscence.
Lone Bride
The lone bride gazed down on her tear-soaked white gown, knowing her fiance would not return to the chapel. Sighing in acceptance and defeat, she began the long walk home.
Heart Shatter
My wife, whose love and devotion means more to me than anything else in the world, is due to have our first child in August. Today I found out I’m sterile.
Testing one’s patience
“Ok, class,” the tired and exasperated teacher intoned to the rowdy 8th graders sitting before him, some tossing spitballs at one another, you will now take one of the most critical tests of the year, but before you start, it’s important that you pay attention to the instructions: Take a plain sheet of ruled paper and print your name in the upper right corner, making sure it is legible, because if it isn’t I will trash can it, along with your Mod number, and the date, then begin by writing the question, followed by your answer, all questions and answers to be written with a #2 pencil, no open books, no talking, no getting out of your chair for any reason, no asking me questions, especially silly ones, for any reason,no asking to go to the bathroom or if you can sharpen your pencil or asking if this test counts, just begin the test Now!”
“Yo, Mr. Smith, could you repeat that please?”
Timmy wadded the tissue up, licked it, stuffed it through the straw, and blew.

King
It’s hard to write a horror story with Trump being President. How do you scare someone now?
A Discovery
I watched my neighbor from the window, and while she was taking off her clothes, I was thinking about how beautiful she was.
I then discovered that she was not a woman at all.
old woman
I watched a thin, very old woman with jet black hair and a bright red hooded fleece pushing a rickety baby carriage with a pet rabbit in it. And just for a moment I had a sense of what it must feel like to be Tim Burton.
To have the untamable curiosity of a cat would offer a life so compelling. All of the humdrum, commonplace things turn entrancing and the daily grind is now intriguing.
Recycled for Life
In the alley behind the Nursing Home, they recycle the withered bodies of former residents in gray bins. Once a week, infants swaddled inside plastic totes appear on the front doorstep.
MIRRORS
Don’
t get too close to mirrors they love smiling at you when you come close
True love
The dreams that seemed no real, the promise unforgotten, and the feeling unsurpassed. That is true love.
Not Guilty!
The court was filled up and the clerk read out the charge sheet. The defendant claimed an alibi for the night of the murder and the Judge returned verdict of not guilty.
Great Honour
The son of an old wretched woman got jailed yesterday for farting in the public where at the same time the tension danced spirally through my bowels and I felt the disgracing element moving towards my anus. I blew it and laughed, paid a bulky bribe and got honoured (OFR).
