Love
Max the little dog
There once was a dog by the name of Max. Max was a wandering dog that prowled the streets in search of food and a place to stay. Max appeared to be harsh and ragged, yet he actually had a kind heart. Max once came upon a tiny family in the neighborhood who had just moved into a new home. They were all struggling to take their possessions into the home as he observed from a distance, and he had the impression that they were all alone in the world, just as he was. Max approached the family without thinking and barked at them, as if to say, I'll assist you. And he did assist them. He assisted them in unpacking and settling into their new house by carrying boxes and belongings in his mouth. The family opted to adopt Max since they were so appreciative of him. He had plenty of food to eat, a cozy bed to sleep in, and a lot of affection. Max was ecstatic and certain that he had at last located his forever home. As time passed, Max established himself as a trustworthy friend and defender. He would keep watch at the front entrance, barking at any possible intruders and ensuring the safety of his family. And he was always there to lick the youngsters' faces and wag his tail joyously when they got home from school. Max's folks once brought him to the park to play catch. Max was giddy to the point of exhaustion as he ran and jumped while pursuing the ball. Max, however, discovered that his ball had been left behind when the family began to pack up and depart. Max rushed back to the park to get his ball without pausing. When he arrived, he observed a young girl playing with it. Despite not knowing the girl, Max had a gut feeling that she needed assistance and was disoriented. Max handed her the ball with a soft bark and a nose nuzzle. Max guided the youngster back to her anxious parents after she smiled and accepted the ball. Since that time, Max has gained the respect of his family and the community as a real hero. Max was aware that he was at last, genuinely home, and that everyone could depend on him to be there for them in times of need.

Sometimes the Wrong Things Feel Good
I never realized how prohibited things felt until I kissed a married man. How can something wrong feel like bouncing on clouds? Am I ashamed? Well, it was raining tears from my eyes after it happened. Maybe it's because a married man sees me as the most beautiful flower in the universe and my husband sees nothing when he looks at me, he never cared to continue making the flame high. The funny thing is that if he found out about the kiss, he would become a monster; while I still became his best friend when he slept with other women.

Monster High School
Today was finals. The test required we scare ten humans. I was a very talented human scarer. I hid in their closets and under their beds, came in through their rooftops and landed on top of their heads. When they wouldn’t scare easy I tied up their kids. Then I’d watch as they’d flip their lids. I went back to school and turned in a recording of it all. With over one thousand human scares, my teacher took a fall. Whispers started amongst the humans about how bad I was to all. When you see X face, hide and crawl.
