Pradita Kapahi / May 24, 2017

If familiarity breeds contempt,

I think I’m better off alone.

Ultimately, we are all alone = we come alone and go alone

I feel being alone means we are guided by our inner voice.

  That is true. I also feel being around too many people all the time kills your inner voice so that you stop thinking for yourself and start acting like the others around you are behaving.

I have steel in my veins. I have iron in my heart. I’m Iron Man. . . I repeat to myself like a broken record. . . I’m pacing on the floor, going round and round and round and round…like a broken record. It’s a wonder my circumnavigation around the coffee table hasn’t burned a hole through the carpet yet, or activated my upchuck reflex. . . Need courses through me again – wild, calamitous. . . I have steel in my… Fuck it! . . I run to the refrigerator, breathe in the cold air swirling through the freezer and pull out that piece of heaven, its weight a comforting presence in my hand. Ripping the wrapper off I lose no time before biting into the double chocolate popsicle. My eyes flutter shut and I moan obscenely. Ugh, who needs drugs when you have this? . . My brain throws up an image of my weighing scales this morning. Guilt tastes sour, but chocolate tastes better. . . Okay, only half of this. Promise. . . I am two people inside one. One urges to nibble, the other, to devour like King Kong. King Kong wins. Two-thirds of it is gone already. In addition to being a superhero (more like super-zero) and a broken record, I’m also an ape. . . You promised! . . Oh but there’s only a third remaining. My two people argue. . . I have steel in my… . . Molten chocolate dribbles down my wrist. My brain short-circuits and King Kong strikes again. . . Next morning my scales are merciless. . . I transform into a broken record again. I have steel in my veins… . . Ugh, or maybe just vinyl. . . #story#fiction #flashfiction #brokenrecord #weakresolve #chocolateaddict #amwriting

I'm sooooo in love with this book!😍😍😍 I can't wait to turn the next page, but I don't want it to end either. The conflicted and shy Noah cracks me up like no teenager in all of my book reading history has. Have you read this one? If not I recommend it already even though I'm only 20% done with it. #bookworm #bookobsessed #booklover #bibliophile #bookaholic #booknerd #illgiveyouthesun #jandynelson #teenagers #booklove #praditakapahi #writerswhoread #writerlife #twins #teenagelife

She’s sweating bucketfuls even though the air conditioning in this shopping mall is blasting arctic air through the vents. One hand holds four shopping bags, there’s three more on the floor sandwiched between her legs, while her other hand barely manages to hold down her four-year-old – a slippery baby eel eyeing the gigantic teddy bear sitting invitingly in a toy-store window display. It doesn’t matter that she’s just had a Happy Meal and two hours in the play area. She wants more. Always does. “Hold still, please, Arya. Mumma has to withdraw money… and no, you don’t need that teddy bear. We’re going home now.” She forgot her reading glasses at home. Crap! She’s squinting at the ATM machine’s grainy screen hoping she’s punching the right buttons. The thirty-something bloke waiting behind her is tapping his polished shoe impatiently. She shoots him an apologetic glance. His eyes do a 360-degree roll in his sockets. Beep! Little Arya’s hand punches in a wrong number just when she’s about to hit enter, for the third time. She loses it and hisses like a cornered snake at Arya, “Why can’t you behave yourself for two minutes?!” Arya starts to wail uncontrollably. The man behind them is going tch, tch, tch. She finishes her transaction somehow, scoops up her bags and her sobbing child in her arms and starts walking away when she hears the man mutter, “What a terrible mother”. #flashfiction #fictionwritersofinstagram #parenting #badparenting #motherhood #badimpression #storywriting
