Last Goodbye
We drove up the snowy, winding road towards the cozy A-frame cabin. It was possibly the most beautiful Airbnb we had ever been to. The house was located on top of a steep hill with miles and miles of woods surrounding the property. The snow made it look like taken straight out of a fairy tale.

One last gift
I’m sitting on our couch looking at the package. It’s a midsized box, not too heavy but not too light. When I heard a loud noise outside of our front door the last thing I expected to see was a drone dropping it off at our doorstep. Before I could make anything of it, the drone was gone. It flew away like some kind of a bird. There’s no sender’s address. Weird… I picked up the box, brought it to the couch, and now I’m just sitting, staring at it.

To whoever killed my husband
Dear someone, It's been 27 days since you took a left turn without paying enough attention and killed my husband. I don't know what exactly happened, I don't really need to know. All I know is that you took that turn, and my husband's life ended.

How to be a F*ck*ng Fairy Princess?
When I was 7, my primary school teacher asked us to write in a few sentences who we want to be when we grow up. I came home very excited about the assignment and I told my mum I wanted to be a princess. She told me I couldn’t write such bullshit (she might have used different wording) and I should be more realistic. I should write about becoming a doctor. Since I was only 7 and didn’t know any better I listened to my mum and wrote down exactly what she told me to write. Sentence by sentence. Word by word…crushing my soul. To this day I remember how upset I was. How much I DID NOT want to be a doctor.
