DOS Ch-71
It took some time, but finally, life was back to normalcy. I had heard somewhere that time heals all wounds. There is no substitute for a departed loved one, especially a parent, but people get used to living without them after a particular point. Evan adapted to living with us rather quickly. One thing I found strange was his insistence on fast-tracking his education using private tutors.“I don’t think this is a good idea,” Mum said slowly after listening to Evan’s request.Evan was ready with his…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“‘Hope you have -- er -- a good holiday,’ said Hermione, looking uncertainly after Uncle Vernon, shocked that anyone could be so unpleasant. “‘Oh, I will,’ said Harry, and they were surprised at the grin that was spreading over his face. ‘They don't know we're not allowed to use magic at home. I'm going to have a lot of fun with Dudley this summer....’” “The End,” I read the last word of one of my favorite books before closing it shut. “And that’s how ends,…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“What the hell are you doing walking so slow?” Patty groaned, running ahead of her best friend, Claire. “Don’t you remember the last time we couldn’t get the tickets for ? Do you want to repeat that experience?”“Calm your horses, Pat,” Claire said leisurely. “This isn’t that big of a film. It’s very niche. I don’t think there’ll be a big crowd for it.”“I don’t care!” Patty retorted. “On the off-chance there is a crowd, I don’t wanna wait to see the film.”Claire…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“Hey, gang, what’re we doing?” I asked cheerfully as I sat opposite Ricky Gervais and his co-star Ashley Jensen. The latter, a beautiful woman in her mid-thirties, played the female lead in the show—the woman my character was currently lusting after.“Just eating,” Ashley replied.“Sweet.” I nodded confidently before leaning forward. “Look, thanks for covering my arse earlier. The offer still stands.”“What offer?” she asked, bewildered.“You know.” I gave her a meaningful look.…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

I looked over at the bustling set, where everyone seemed too busy doing something—everyone but me.“Got your script for the day?”I turned to my left and saw my mother standing beside me, watching me curiously. This was the first time in many years we had been on set together where she wasn’t just visiting. She looked completely at ease here, the confident grin on her face making that clear.“Yeah,” I replied. “I’ve memorized it too. I’m a little nervous about it, but still, I have a feeling…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

@RealNinaB: My dad just lost his retirement savings. Meanwhile, Troy Armitage made $26 BILLION from this crash. He’s 19. Nineteen. This is dystopia. I’ve lost all trust in our politicians for letting this happen. @OccupyWallStRedux: This isn't "smart investing", this is legalized looting. While Americans drown in debt, Troy Armitage is probably popping champagne on a yacht.#TroyArmitageExploitsCrisis @ThisIsYourEconomy: Reminder: You paid more in taxes last year than Troy Armitage did to become…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

Rod Meyer glanced down at his watch, only to reel back in surprise. Nearly 2 hours and 45 minutes had already passed since the movie began. Most films would have wrapped up by now, yet this one still had several major plot points left to cover. The strange thing was that not for a second had Rod felt bored or thought the film was too long. He didn’t have time to dwell on that thought because the movie, aided by its tight editing, immediately surged back into motion. This time, the perspective…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

Barry took another copy of the page, “I’ll read it with you.” “Yes, Cole?” He asked me, indicating that he had begun the audition. “They used to hang people here.” I kept my voice low as if a little hesitant to answer the question. “That’s not correct. Where’d you hear that?” "They'd pull the people in crying and kissing their families bye... People watching would spit at them." I answered in a somber tone. "Cole, this was a legal courthouse. Laws were passed here. Some…- 1.0 M • Ongoing
