The Haunting of Briarwood Manor
Briarwood Manor was once a grand estate, built by a wealthy family in the late 1800s. It was a place of opulence and luxury, with sprawling gardens, crystal chandeliers, and marble floors. But that was a long time ago, and the mansion had fallen into disrepair. The gardens were overgrown with weeds, the chandeliers had long since gone dark, and the marble floors were cracked and stained.

Meloetta’s Jealousy. Top Story - April 2023.
“Melo look! This one looks like a dolphin jumping out of a sea of clouds!” Meloetta (Mellow-ettah) gave her Grandma the side eye. She crossed her arms even tighter and turned to face her Dad, who was sleeping in the aisle seat. “Oh come on, Melo. You’re gonna miss all the beautiful clouds if you’re gonna sulk for the whole flight”. “Nana, I already told you that I wanted the window seat! Not the middle one!” “But Melo, this is my first time on a plane and I wanted to have that experience before I die”. “It’s my first time too, Nana!” “You’re only nine and have your whole life ahead of you. That would bring many more opportunities for you to board a plane and have the window seat. I, on the other hand, would be snuffed out soon like a candle. It’s now or never for me”. “Nana, you always have some kinda excuse for everything! Why do I always have to give up on what I want? And it’s always you who takes it from me!” Meloetta’s Grandma was aghast at the blatant accusation, “How–how could you? I mean, why would you even say that, Melo? When have I ever done such a thing, especially to you?” The look of utter disbelief dawned on Meloetta’s face, “Nana, what are you? Some kinda magician who makes your own memories disappear?” “Forgive me, Melo darling, I’m old and my memory isn’t as good as it used to be. Please do remind me when and what did I do to you?” beseeched her Grandma. “Okay, fine. Nana, do you remember baking chocolate chip cookies with macadamia nuts for Kirlia last month?” “Yes dear, I remember that very well. Kirlia enjoyed them very much and said it was the best batch that I’ve ever made! Meloetta rolled her eyes and muttered under her breath, “Oh yes, how would you forget anything to do with Kirlia?” “What was that, Melo?” “Nothing, Nana! You still don’t know where I’m going with this?” Grandma looked very confused as she shook her head and her eyes implored. “Nana, I asked to have some of those cookies and you didn’t let me have any. Not even one!”
