Mystery Bag

The biting night air of the multi-story parking lot hit Danni like a physical blow. Jet-lagged and disoriented after two weeks in the sun, she fumbled for her car keys, the familiar concrete maze feeling utterly alien. Her fingers brushed against the rough texture of a large brown handbag slung over her shoulder. She paused. This wasn't hers . Danni remembered her small, colourful clutch, packed light for the resort. This bag was hefty, coarse leather, dark and unadorned. A sudden, faint thump pulsed from deep within its confines, vibrating against her hip. Her breath hitched. She didn’t recall buying it, let alone packing it. The parking lot stretched, vast and empty under the sickly yellow glow of the sodium lamps. Every shadow seemed to lengthen, twist. A cold dread began to coil in her stomach.

Abra Ham and West Ham

Abra Ham and West Ham stood on opposite ends of the dusty road, their gazes locked in a silent battle. They had been enemies since childhood, when a dispute over a stolen apple led to a fierce fistfight. From that day on, their rivalry had only grown, fueled by pride, envy, and a mutual desire to prove themselves superior.
Abra Ham, with his broad shoulders and fiery red hair, was the pride of his family. He had inherited his father's farm and had proven himself as a skilled farmer and a formidable wrestler. West Ham, on the other hand, was the black sheep of his family. Lean and wiry, with a sharp tongue and a quick temper, he had turned his back on the family business and instead embraced a life of adventure and mischief.





As they stood there, neither man willing to back down, a sudden gust of wind blew through the parched landscape, stirring up dust and debris. Both Abra Ham and West Ham shielded their eyes, but when the dust settled, they found themselves face to face, their noses almost touching.
For a moment, they simply stared at each other, the tension between them crackling like electricity. And then, as if by some unspoken agreement, they burst into laughter. It was a deep, hearty laugh that echoed through the empty streets, erasing years of animosity in an instant.
From that day on, Abra Ham and West Ham were no longer enemies, but rather brothers in arms, united by their shared experiences and the bonds of friendship. And though they still teased and challenged each other, it was now done in good fun, a sign of their enduring acknowledgement of duality.
