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!”

"The Ghost Ship"
It was a beautiful summer weekend, and a group of five adventurous friends, Sara, Mike, Jessica, Alex, and Mark, had set sail on a luxurious yacht for a getaway to a remote island. They were excited about the adventure ahead and couldn't wait to explore the secluded island's pristine beaches and lush forests. As they sailed across the open ocean, enjoying the warm sun and salty sea breeze, they spotted something unusual in the distance. It was an old, abandoned ship floating aimlessly in the middle of the ocean. Intrigued, they decided to investigate and steered their yacht towards the mysterious vessel. As they got closer, they noticed that the ship looked weathered and eerie, with its sails tattered and its decks empty. Despite the eerie aura, curiosity got the best of them, and they cautiously boarded the ship. Once on board, they were immediately struck by the ship's foreboding atmosphere. The air was heavy with an otherworldly chill, and the ship's dark corridors were filled with a sense of foreboding. As they explored the ship, they discovered signs of a tragedy that had befallen the ship's crew long ago. The walls were adorned with faded portraits of the crew, and the logs revealed a tale of mutiny and betrayal. It was clear that something terrible had happened on this ship, and its crew's souls were still restless, haunting the ship. As night fell, the friends found themselves trapped on the ship. The yacht they arrived on had disappeared, and they were left with no means of escape. Panic set in as they realized they were not alone. They started experiencing inexplicable phenomena, such as objects moving on their own, ghostly whispers echoing through the halls, and shadows lurking in the corners. They tried to stay together and find a way off the ship, but the malevolent force that held the ship captive seemed to have other plans. One by one, the friends began to succumb to the ship's haunting presence. They were tormented by their own fears and guilt, as the ship's dark history unfolded before their eyes. Sara, who had a fascination with the paranormal, was the first to be targeted. She was lured into the ship's dark depths, where she encountered the vengeful spirit of the ship's former captain. Mike, who was always skeptical of supernatural occurrences, was plagued by ghostly apparitions that tormented his mind and soul. Jessica, who had a secret past, found herself confronting her own demons as she came face to face with the ship's tragic past. Alex, the brave and rational one of the group, tried to find a logical explanation for the supernatural occurrences, but even he was slowly losing his grip on reality. Mark, who had been reluctant to board the ship in the first place, was the last one standing. He knew that he had to find a way to break the ship's curse and save his friends. He delved deep into the ship's history, uncovering the truth about the mutiny and betrayal that had taken place on board. With time running out, Mark gathered his remaining strength and confronted the vengeful spirit of the ship's captain. He pleaded with the ghost, explaining that they were innocent and meant no harm. Moved by Mark's sincerity, the captain's spirit revealed that he had been seeking revenge for years but was willing to let go of his anger and move on to the afterlife. As the captain's spirit dissipated, the ship's curse was lifted, and the friends found themselves back on their yacht, floating in the middle of the ocean. They were relieved to be free from the ship's haunted confines and grateful for Mark's bravery in confronting the ghost. They sailed back to the remote island, and as Mark's yacht approached the remote island, they looked back at the abandoned ship, now disappearing into the misty horizon. They knew they had a story to tell, a tale of a ghost ship that they would never forget. Once they reached the island, they were greeted by the warm sandy beaches and the soothing sound of waves crashing against the shore. They set up camp and sat around a bonfire, sharing their experiences and reflecting on the events that had unfolded. They realized that their weekend getaway had turned into a spine-chilling adventure they would remember for a lifetime. They were grateful to have survived the haunted ship and to have found the courage to confront the vengeful spirits. They also learned valuable lessons about facing their fears and the consequences of past actions. In the days that followed, they explored the island, taking in its natural beauty and enjoying each other's company. They formed a stronger bond through their shared ordeal and created memories that would last forever. They also made a pact never to speak of the ghost ship to anyone, as they knew that not everyone would believe their story. On their last day, they bid farewell to the remote island, taking with them the memories of their eerie encounter. As they sailed back to the mainland, they looked back at the island, knowing that they had left behind a secret that only they would share. Years passed, but the memory of the ghost ship remained etched in their minds. They went on with their lives, but they often reflected on that fateful weekend and the supernatural events that had unfolded. They remained close friends, bound together by a unique bond that could only be forged through such an extraordinary experience. One day, as Mark was going through old photographs, he stumbled upon a picture he had taken on the ghost ship. In the picture, there was a faint image of the ship's crew, now at peace, waving goodbye. It was a reminder to him that some mysteries were meant to remain unsolved, and some stories were meant to be kept as secrets. And so, the tale of the ghost ship remained a cherished memory among the group of friends, a story they shared only with each other, knowing that they had encountered something truly inexplicable and supernatural. It was a story that would be passed down through generations, a legend of the haunted ship that had once crossed their path on a remote island, a story that would forever be a part of their lives, and a story that would never be forgotten.
