“Ms. Schaffer will see you now,” Claudia’s assistant said, gesturing toward the office with a no-nonsense look in her eyes. I rose from my seat in the waiting area and walked toward Claudia’s corner office, enclosed by a massive glass wall that gave the place a very professional and chic vibe. I remembered having a similar office during my days working for a big firm in my first life. Times had different now, of course, but the atmosphere was exactly the same. The only real difference now was…- 165.3 K • Ongoing
Chloe took a sip from the teacup, which, honestly, wasn’t that bad. She hadn’t realized when she had gotten so used to the high-class housewife routine, but she had, and now she couldn’t go back to her normal life. This included occasional luncheons or high tea with her group of friends. “The tea is lovely, Marie,” Chloe said sincerely to the host. “Thank you, Chloe,” Marie smiled back. “Try some of my lemon tart as well. I baked it myself.” “Yes, yes, your cooking is amazing,…- 930.1 K • Ongoing
- “Holy shit! That was the best film I’ve ever seen!” Daisy shouted the second the screen faded to black. “Language!” Mom scolded, shooting Daisy a sharp look. “We talked about this, Daisy. You need to control how you express yourself better. You’re not a kid anymore.” Daisy rolled her eyes and gave Mom a defiant stare before turning to me, throwing her hands up in frustration. “See what I have to deal with? On top of schoolwork, Zach’s nonsense, and now Mom too. You and Zach say…

- May 2010, New York City, New York “How are things?” I asked casually. Judging by the eager faces around the table, things were good. At the very least, no one looked worried. The meeting itself was informal by design. No one wore suits, and the whole vibe was chill. I preferred it that way, no rigid agendas, no stiff presentations. Just people talking honestly. “Things are great,” Chad Hurley, the CEO of YouTube, said with barely contained excitement. “We’re finally profitable.” I…

- “Damn,” Ash whistled softly as he took in the stream of girl groups walking past us. The late summer air was filled with the excitement of students returning after the break or freshmen starting a new chapter in their lives. “Now I regret not coming to college. Just look at those chicks go. The sway in their step is enough to wreck my heart.” Julie turned to me, one eyebrow arched. “Did I ever tell you that you have a pig for a friend?” I snorted. “Believe me, this is very tame behavior…

- The music started with the iconic Hedwig’s theme before melding into something original, created exclusively for the last Harry Potter movie. It was grand in scale, which was exactly what was needed for the epic finale of one of the greatest film series in the history of movies. Till this day, I am baffled by the fact that I never realized my love for music in my past life. Even when I participated in X Factor, I was eliminated before it could go anywhere. For my voice, the only difference I had…

- ~My first love broke my heart for the first time, and I was like Baby, baby, baby, oh Like baby, baby, baby, no Like baby, baby, baby, oh Thought you'd always be mine, mine~ I watched Zoe Kravitz sing with slightly judgmental eyes and raised eyebrows. "Really?" I asked. "You have to sing that one out of all the songs in the world?" Justin Bieber had made his debut with "Baby" only recently, and the song had exploded worldwide. It was one of the biggest debuts any young pop star had…

- May 2009, New York City, USA “Ladies and gentlemen, Troy Armitage!” I walked out through the studio doors with a bright smile on my face. The in-house band sat to my left, just by the edge of the stage. Beyond them was the sea of faces that made up my audience for the night. The moment my name was announced, the crowd erupted into thunderous applause that echoed across the studio. I waved as I stepped to the center of the stage. “Thank you,” I said, though my voice was almost lost beneath…

- “I don’t understand why they even have an intermission during a Broadway show,” Austin muttered impatiently, tapping his foot against the floor as they stood in line at the snack counter. The lobby was filled with chatter of other theater-goers, though unlike the movies, the crowd seemed a little more sophisticated. “If there were no intermission, we wouldn’t be here waiting for snacks. The show’s barely two hours long. Most movies are longer than that. They could easily finish it in one go if…
