The Seductive Neighbour. Content Warning.
I’ll never forget those softly spoken words. The way that she made eye contact while getting out of my car and softly uttered those words immediately got my mind racing with possibilities. It seemed to me as if they were thrown out almost as an afterthought, yet I couldn’t help wondering if there was an unspoken invitation there. The impact of them resonated with me for months.

The Perfect Woman
Walking down the corridor to my apartment, I shake my head. We didn’t even get along. His nose is big, he’s not particularly tall, and he makes this strange squint when he’s thinking, as if his face disagrees with his own thoughts. There was no chemistry, no movie moment that made me want to twirl in the rain. Just another failed date.

What I do to be without doubts
Everybody at some point in time has experienced doubts, whether it is about what they have to do or simply how things are going to turn out. It's quite a natural feeling we all get except that it can be destructive in certain scenarios. Having doubts, especially for an extended period, or even in the wrong context, could lead to catastrophic consequences. It might lead you to make the wrong decision, make a mistake, or even just be confused and lose your balance. Doubts are a little like fear, they give us a good measure of what to do and what not to do at the end of the day but we have to be careful not to dwell in them for too long, or else we might crash.

Kendallisms
It’s another week of teaching, and I am stuck in front of my laptop trying to avoid marking anything. It is Saturday night, and I still think that I am taking a chance by avoiding all the grading I have ahead of me. But some things cannot wait. I am dealing with the stress of the college and the request that I add more to a schedule that simply cannot take it. My mind needs to clear itself of a lot of detritus and this is the best way I can think of, besides the guitar and the promise to learn how to draw. All that can wait. This has to come out.

What the hail?
Ugh, I woke up fine but I feel like I have nothing to go off of. My schedule is all topsy turvy and I am not sure how to proceed on a lot of things. My mom randomly told me I needed to babysit the dogs today and I am almost thinking of using that as an excuse to miss the appointment I have today for the vocational help.

YOUNG AMERICANS (Ж). Content Warning.
Tsunamis of iridescent green pain cascade across my temporal lobe, temporarily drowning out my habitual thought processes. I attempt to drive my new, old-fashioned, expensive, sparkling turquoise car in spite of the crippling pain, yet wisely decide that this would be tantamount to suicide, so I park it near some cheap live music venue.

Secret Confession #6. Content Warning.
But during college, I shared an apartment with a girl named Mia. We were taking the same course, and thus we had late-night study sessions plus similar experiences. Mia was one of those natural simpletons. She had a boyfriend, and from what I could gather, really seemed to be content about every angle of her life. She was academically very brilliant, always topping her class, and often she discussed freely with her classmates her affair with her boyfriend and even gave some intimate details of their life together.

Secret Confession #4. Content Warning.
It was two firsts for me. First of all, it was the first time I cheated on my husband. It was also the first time I hired a male escort. There are many factors involved as to why I did it. I was married for 17 years with two kids and was fine until my husband lost his job and I ended up going back to work. He looked for work for several weeks, then gave up. He did just fine keeping the house up until he started playing games. He had no interest in anything outside of that anymore.

Righteous in a corrupt world
The world is a corrupt place and it's only getting worse to the extent where corruption is steadily becoming the norm. We’ve gotten to the point where we even question what the truth is anymore. The very foundations of what makes us humans are no longer regarded as solid, you’ve got people wondering what a woman is, whether the realities we’ve always known even exist anymore.

Secret Confession. Content Warning.
This incident occurred in the last days of my engineering. I was a computer science student. I used to know one girl during my college days. For the sake of narration let's call her 'Snehal' (not her real name). Honestly, we were more than good friends. We had known each other for almost 4 years. We had kissed each other a couple of times but that was it. We never got to reach second base. But we were perfectly all right with that. Our friends knew about us. So did our professors but they did not bother us because our grades were top-notch. In short, we were the no-nonsense type of students.

Ammanda Part 2. Content Warning.
After that summer, my bond with Ammanda grew in ways I never could have imagined. It started as something casual—long conversations by the pool, moments of quiet laughter, and stolen glances when no one was looking. Despite her serious nature, Ammanda had a warm side she rarely showed, and I felt lucky to witness it. Months went by, and while she remained guarded about her private life, I began to sense there was something deeper beneath the surface. One evening, as we sat under the stars after a long day, she opened up to me about her past—about a marriage she was in that had lost its spark, but one she couldn’t easily walk away from. It wasn’t that she didn’t love her husband, but their relationship had become more about duty than passion.
