DOS Ch-22
Standing at the entrance of the fighting gym, I felt like a tiny ant next to the heavy steel doors. The sounds of fists striking pads and rhythmic shouts of fighters seeped through the walls, making me a little nervous. The receptionist had made it very clear that parents were not allowed inside the gym proper because many parents get a little squeamish seeing their kids fight or hit or something similar, so here I was all alone. It was a little daunting task when I have had Steve and Kathy’s support…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

October 2007, Kloves Residence, London“Do you realize how stupid that move was?” Mum asked, her voice steeped in disappointment. “I thought you were better than this, Troy. Isolating yourself for the better part of the year is not cool.”I looked across the room at the other two occupants—Dad and Evan.The latter had wrapped up the joint production of the first two movies while I was away, and was now back in London, enjoying front-row seats to the lecture my parents had decided to deliver.“Do…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

“What do you think has impacted the music industry the most in the last decade?”Arlen Brock already had hundreds of points he could raise as soon as he heard the question. He was a seasoned music critic, after all—one of the greatest, in fact. But since his audience wasn’t as knowledgeable as he was, he decided to dumb it down a bit and keep it generic.“Undoubtedly, sound mixing software that anyone can use,” he answered honestly before elaborating. “A decade or two ago, it was almost…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

The moment we stepped into the Presidential Suite, the door clicked shut behind us. Quiet luxury enveloped the space—elegant, expensive, utterly private. It was strange how accustomed I’d grown to places like this, barely giving it a second glance, while Scarlett let out a low whistle of appreciation. Early in my acting career, I hadn’t been extravagant. Growing up poor with my biological mother had left me wary of spending on things I didn’t need. My adoptive parents had broken that habit by…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

Chapter 205 CNN Entertainment: “TROY ARMITAGE SWEEPS THE GRAMMYS IN UNPRECEDENTED FASHION” “History was made at the 48th Annual Grammy Awards last night, as 18-year-old Troy Armitage not only took home 12 trophies—including Album, Record, and Song of the Year—but also became the youngest artist to complete an EGOT.

“Do you agree to these conditions as laid out by this contract and the remuneration of $250,000?” A judge asked me with an almost incredulous expression on his face. Asshole. He didn’t have to state my compensation for the Sixth Sense out loud. He was probably jealous that I, a 9-year-old, was earning from this movie more than what he probably earned for an entire year. Steve and Kathy took quite some time negotiating my remuneration with the producers. At first, they were offering me only…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

My case worker left after accompanying me inside the house that was situated in Greenwich. It was a modest two story house in a quiet neighborhood. My room was on the second floor with a bed, a desk and a closet. Nice enough for my current requirements. “You like it, kid?” A male voice came from the door. I turned and saw my new guardian Steve leaning against the door. Now that I take in his appearance properly, he was a man on the chubbier side with a resting bitch face. Yeah, the…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

Mum was driving me to the school when we saw that a few men were lurking around the front gate. That’s odd. Just then I caught sight of something black in one of the man’s hands and I could hazard a very good guess who they were. “Mum, reporters are here. Oh yes, I almost forgot. Drive around, the principal gave me permission to use the back entrance.” I ducked my head to avoid getting caught by the sight of any of the reporters. “I know about that. I didn’t think they’d be here…- 1.0 M • Ongoing

December 2006, Los Angeles, CA, USA "That was the best sex I've ever had," Rihanna whispered against my chest, her body draped gracefully in nothing but moonlight. "You keep getting better whenever we are apart. Are you practicing with someone else?" I chuckled at her joke before pressing a kiss to her temple. "Thanks, love. I missed you so much I just had to show you. It's a shame you can't move in after my birthday—then we could do this all day, every day, however many times you wanted." She…- 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
