    Warning: Heavy emotional themesI felt a sickening pit of anxiety grow in my stomach and throat as I pulled into the sparsely populated lot of the hotel. In a time that felt like another life entirely, that pit was once filled with pride in my work. I had tricked myself to think it was just and righteous to pursue this kind of life, spouting its virtues like a holy man does his books, but it's different now, I'm different now. The scary part is I cant tell when I changed. It was like I was switched out with some else in my sleep, a complete stranger. I reluctantly pulled the key from the igniti...od3one door

    Apple Tree Boy

    Jacob’s Ford Wagon lacked motor mounts. It shook when he drove it. Jacob’s curiosity as to how long he could actually drive this P.O.S. outweighed his need for a new car, but only slightly. A month ago, Jacob’s father, Adrian, had a panic attack while Jacob and he were idling at a stop lightwww.onedoor.cc, the car vibrating wildly. “Get me outta here!” Adrian said, gripping the oh-shit handle with one hand and palming dashboard with the other.

They are loud, battling Her voice. They are consumed with their materials...od3one door

    The Abandoned house

    The shingles were dark grey and the whole house seemed like it was a living horror movie. It's windows draped with spiderwebs and the glass had a thick permanent mist on it that reminded us of a fall leaf. The tree's gave an eerier feel to the house. It had been abandoned for almost thirty years. The old oak wood floor boards creeked when wind travelled on it and the wood seemed like it would collapse under the weight of a cat. The chimeny had moss on it from the moisture and dirt that had built up in the woods around the house and it seemed a mystery just how it was still standing.There are r...od3one door
