Businesswoman Chapter 323
Lisa lay in her bed with Devlin. Their heartbeats almost matched the other. She used her fingers to cup his brown face. “You’re the other side of my joy. My work is of course my other half, but you are the reason why I have a fullness in my life.”

Firebug: Chapter 8 - Ripples. Top Story - November 2025.
Rain, gentle and soothing, pitter-pattered on the window beside Theo. The steady percussion roused him from slumber slowly, teasing him awake like an oyster being pried out of its shell.

As the sun expired in the sky, Lisa sat by herself in a high-end Asian restaurant in downtown Wilmington. As she picked up caviar nigri sushi with metal chopsticks, she felt the idea of loneliness wrap around her. She knew that she could be alone and still love her own company.

The Proof of the Red Suit. AI-Generated.
No one believed Oliver. Seven years old, with crooked glasses, a cowlick that defied gravity, and a brain that made even his science teacher pause mid-sentence, Oliver knew things other kids didn’t. He could solve quantum puzzles in his head before recess and once rewired the toaster to sing Jingle Bells. But no matter how many equations he got right or how many inventions he built from spare clock parts, no one—especially not the adults—believed him about Santa.

The Universe Written on a Single Leaf
A philosopher discovered a leaf with veins forming patterns identical to star maps. He spent years studying it, realizing the design wasn’t coincidence but a reminder: the universe is not out there—it is in everything, even the smallest sliver of matter. When the leaf eventually decayed, the philosopher smiled instead of mourning. “Infinity,” he said, “doesn’t disappear. It only changes form.”
