Don't Be A Mommy's Boy. Top Story - April 2023.
10th of January, 2024 “Babe, how come you’ve never told me anything about your ex-girlfriends?” “Ummm, where is this coming from?” asked Danny, as he tore his gaze from the TV and looked at her. “Why are you answering my question with another question?” pouted Aioli, on the couch. “What? No. I mean, yes. Babe, you’ve told me you didn’t care about my past. So you kinda caught me off guard there”. “That was when we first started dating. It’s been almost eight months now and we’re getting married in three days”.

#1: The Kangalaree
"The cabin in the woods had been abandoned for years, but one night, a candle burned in the window. - M." The text message blurred and flickered as Kal's phone ran out of battery. The moonlight sprinkled through the canopy of eucalyptus trees. The frosty wind sent a whispering howl through the forest as leaves rustled amongst the Kooraringa forest floor.

Blood in the Water
It had started with one. One mangled body speared atop the fountain. Blood seeped into the water as it cycled through the jet streams. Who knew one body could have that much blood. The fountain was stained red for weeks, the splotches of blood still clinging to the cracks in the stone. No one knew what to do. Local police tried to cover it up, saying it was a prank, that the body was fake. But the stench. The stench of blood and rotting flesh remained, even after they moved the body. People still talked about it, even when they were told to stop. Some said that it didn’t happen at all, that people made it up for attention. But why would something like that be made up? It was near Halloween after all. Maybe it was a prank. A decoration gone wrong.

Task Rabbit
Being in your early twenties in 2023 isn't easy. A simple run to the grocery store can rack up a 200-dollar bill if you’re feeding more than one mouth, not to mention gas and the ridiculous rent price. That was the only reason Marlo even picked up a task rabbit job: the extra cash kept food on the table. It wasn’t easy; some days Marlo would get home as late as 1 AM just to have to wake up 4 hours later. It wasn’t what they wanted, but it kept them living independently from their family. Any amount of work was worth that. They couldn't go back. Not after their mom lost her mind.

Cashmere Hospital: When the lights went out
The doctor, one of the newer plastic surgeons at Cashmere Hospital, looked a little sheepish as he approached my desk. I had only seen him a few times, and he had never spoken to me directly. He was a vain fellow in the same vein as a few of the other hotshot docks around the ER, but today, he looked rattled. His hair was unkempt, his clothing looked dirty, and he was glancing around in that way that made me think he might be being followed.
