Victoria



8:36am. She opens her eyes.
-Fuck!The light is so fucking bright. Yesterday was nuts. God,my head. What time is it?
She turns her head to look at the clock.
-Oh my God!Shit!
She springs from the bad,grabs her skinny jeans of the chair next to the bed. Puts them on. She grabs a top,puts it on and over her lace bra,fast.No time to waste. She is running late. Teeth brushed.
-God my head.Where the fuck is my phone?Gotcha!Choo’s?There you are my babies!Never going out without you two.
She grabs her Prada handbag from the table,gets her cigarettes and keys out. Pops some pills for her headache,as usual.She grabs her portfolio off the table. This is big,she can’t mess this up. Not again. Running out of the house,locks the door. Keys in the bag.Phone in hand.Cigarette out and in the mouth,lit up.
-So good,I need it.
Phone rings.
-Fuck!Hello?Yeah,I’m on my way. I nearly missed it. I can’t.Not again!You got you portfolio?Me too.So where you at right now?Grab me one too,I need it. Just black.Ok.See ya girl.Love ya.
Strong strides,walking fast down the street. Long beautiful hair flowing in the wind. Sunglasses on,hiding the cat eye still there from last night. Red lips.Always. Phone rings as she finishes the cigarette. It’s him.
-God no!I mean it was fun but no.Ignore!Gotta remember to block him. He takes this way too seriously.
She is near the offices. Maria is there with two cups of coffee. One bound to be for her and she needs it. After last night and for what is coming.
-M:You ready?Excited?Girl,you look like shit!Here,I got you one as ordered. Seems like you need it.
-V:Thanks.You are a lifesaver. I need it. I have the worst headache. I don’t think I can do it after last night. I gotta stop doing it.
-M:You always say that and yet here we are. Don’t be too hard on yourself,it’s just fun.While we young huh?
-V:While we young.
Girls laugh and walk into the offices. This is it. Another all or nothing or after a yesterday it’s more nothing with a possible all. Just another day at the office for Victoria.

Performance anxiety

   I´m so nervous. This is my first time. Hands shaking uncontrollably. Never really felt this way. It is like they are not my own. Sweat dripping all over me. All over my face and down my brow. I feel my whole body shake. I don´t feel steady on my own two legs but I know,I will get used to it with time. I know it will be alright. Besides,I have the best tutor. Nerves are natural,he said,and it would be strange not to be nervous. It will get better. Still hear that in my mind,which by the way is a nervous wreck at this point. I can´t think straight. All I can think about is making sure it goes down well,it´s perfect. It´s my first time but still.    Here we are,student and the master so to speak. About to begin the show. I am a wreck and he has seen it all. Thank God he is by my side. I do need the guidance even though we practised a dozen times,i still need all the help I can get I want to be perfect. At the moment he is giving me the talk,it will be alright,he s...

At the top of the hill

   Old wooden church at the top of the hill. Some people say cultists gather at night to worship the demons. There were tales of sacrifice,people captured and kept there. Chanting has been heard from a distance by some and blood has been found in the area.Whether you believe it or not it seems like something,something is going on there. Some people speak of salvation and say that church does a great thing,helps people. Maybe it does but nobody speaks openly about what they see or hear at night and now. Now it is time to find out. The angry crowd gathered outside the church at night,they are determined to find out what is happening in their house of worship at night,whether the rumours are true and if they are,the cultists,those who abuse the faith will pay. As a the crowd approached the church,the doors flung open. People in cloaks and capes,covered in blood,carrying stones and books ran out.Screams were heard from within. Some managed to escape through the crowd while so...

“Rip. Rip rip away. Rip away the pain. Rip away the suffering. It is over. Do not worry little angel. It is done now. You are free and you will not suffer no more.I will make you better,I will stop the pain and I will help you leave this wretched twisted world. You are too good for them. Let me help you. Be free now little angel. Go forth.”He said making the last slice across the dead mangled face,finishing his masterpiece.     Once the latest piece was completed,it was ready to be presented now. He dressed his little angel up and hanged her high up for all to see, he is here. He will help all the angels of the city and they can rest easy,their time will come. For all the sinners,it was a sign. He was in the city and he will save the pure souls from the wicked one´s influence. All the angles will be free and they will all soar high,and when the time will come,he will join the angels. That night,he disappeared into the darkness of the streets. Lurking in the shadows,tra...
