The dream

-





After my mother passed away I was sent to live with aunt Jessy and her husband. She was a really lucky woman, she married one of the most powerful man of this city.
But after some time living with her I felt like she wasn't happy. One I was passing in front of her bedroom and noticed that she was crying. She looked me in the eyes asked me if I wanted everything that she own. At that time I just laughed and said to her: "but antie, it's too soon to talk about that, you are alive, happy and healty, don't worry, things will get better soon!". She then explained me that she wasn't happy with her life, she lived every year thinking about being free again, and she prompted the same question again: "Do you want everything I own?".
- Of course! I replied, you have everything I always dreamed for, a big house, a nice car, fine clothes etc. And uncle Gerald is a great guy! He loves you so much!
She then grab a bootle with some weird inscriptions, filled a bizarre chalice and said:
- Here, drink with me and we seal our deal, I'll give you everything!

Man, that was weird! But hey! After that freak show I was going to be rich. So, as she said, I gave a sip. And that was the last thing I remembered from that moment. I was feeling like in a dream, one weird dream where I was lying down and saw another me putting some money and clothes inside of a backpack. I was feeling weak, I tried to get up and talk to the other me, but he wave his hand grabed the pack and said "goodbye, now you have it all". I was dizzy, I rubed my hands over my eyes and felt something weird, my hands were soft, then I realised the smell of my aunt's favourite perfum. That was not a dream! Now I'm her!

Nathan stared at the mirror, disbelief washing over him as the features of the woman reflected back seemed both familiar and entirely new. Nathalie. That was her true name now, a name that had always echoed deep within, but one he had never dared to speak aloud. The woman in the mirror radiated confidence and power — a leader, a successful businesswoman. But behind those fearless eyes lingered the remnants of Nathan, the man who once thrived, who had it all… except peace of mind. In the past, he had a brilliant career, wealth, status... but there was always a hollow space inside that no achievement could ever fill. A void that slowly consumed him, even as the world applauded his success. His disappearance months ago had been a cry for help that no one understood. It was the moment he realized it was time to confront what he truly needed to become. And now, after a transformation that was both physical and emotional, Nathalie was ready to return to the company. For the first time, as th...

A fitting role

 Hank had made the move from his small-town home to a bustling city, where he was staying with a friend of his father's. Lugging along with him only his possessions, most of which were articles of clothing worn down from use. He tried and failed to find consistent work that would get him by, until his roommate proposed a solution: cleaning up the house could pay his rent, plus possibly earn him an extra bit if he was more thorough than previous cleaners. Hank tried to keep up with the house chores as best he could, but it seemed like there was always something new that needed to be done. His roommate, Marcus, would leave messes everywhere and then expect Hank to clean them up. It wasn't fair, but Hank didn't want to cause any trouble.  One day, as he was scrubbing the bathroom floor, he heard Marcus on the phone in the other room. He wasn't trying to eavesdrop, but he couldn't help but overhear the conversation. Marcus was talking to one of his buddies about how he ...

 Henry and John had been inseparable since childhood. They shared secrets, adventures and dreams, creating a friendship that seemed impenetrable. However, fate had other plans. Henry's parents received an offer of work in a foreign country that they couldn't refuse, and the news was a hard blow for both boys. At the airport, as Henry was about to board the plane, John, with tears in his eyes, hugged his friend for the last time. "I just wish you didn't have to go," John whispered, his heart breaking. Henry, with a heavy chest, promised that they would keep in touch, but they both knew that nothing would be the same. As the plane took off, John watched until it disappeared over the horizon. Then he looked up at the sky and wished intensely that they could continue together, no matter what. On the plane, Henry closed his eyes, trying to sleep and distract himself from the feeling of loss. But when he opened them again, something was wrong. He was no longer on the pl...
