Irina's Possession

It exuded an aura of foreboding, its weathered façade a testament to the years it had endured in silence. Local legends spoke of whispers that carried through the breeze and inexplicable lights that flickered behind its curtained windows. Tales of paranormal activities and possession had turned the mansion into a place of dread, yet fascination.

"Didn't you feel anything last night?"
On the main night around 1.45am I advised my servant to switch off the light and nod off. He didn't hear what I said obviously so he passed before my room inquiring, "Ma'am what did you say?" He remained before my room entryway as I advised him to switch off the light and go directly to rest. Unexpectedly we both stayed quiet and halted. I inquired, "Why Ana (my associate's name)?" He recently said, "Ma'am, could I at any point snooze Ma'am's room this evening?" I said, "Can..." So night we as a whole dozed in my room including my youngsters.

The wind howled through the desolate landscape, carrying with it a sense of unease as it brushed against the decaying walls of the forgotten manor. Its grandeur had faded, its glory days reduced to mere echoes that whispered through the corridors like distant memories. The townspeople had long avoided the place, for they believed it was cursed, haunted by the tragic events that had unfolded within its walls.

Dogs have better instincts
Recently I adopted a small puppy. Long and cold nights of wiring can get extremely grim when you are alone. At first, she was the perfect company, she simply walked around my legs as I wrote and even slept on my lap. I could also talk to her about my future ideas. It might sound weird at first, but for me, it is easier to organize that way. But now she is more like a distraction, she needs my attention almost all the time, and it is impossible to make her sleep. She is very active and loves to jump all around the house.

Collection Day
It started simply enough: I suddenly remembered that it was trash pick-up day. I walked into the kitchen and tugged on the flimsy plastic loops as I strained to break the vacuum holding the bag in the trash can.

the ice cream fan
As a young adult who chose to move out as fast as possible, I quickly realized that an air conditioner was way out of my budget. I also didn’t even know how to install one or where to borrow some tools, so I settled for the next best option. A cheap standing fan and lots of cookie dough ice cream. The cookie dough didn’t do much to cool me down, but the idea of lounging in my undies in front of the fan, while totally not inhaling carton after carton of ice cream, was much more attractive.
