very short stories

he is the driver ... she is the maid ... their employers used to know them before they came to work for them ... the wife used to be friends with the maid ... while the husband used to work with the driver ... it was humiliating for one party ... and very satisfying for the other ...

her beauty far surpassed anyone else's ... as did her elegance ... her intellect ... everything about her was just superior ... he was a complete jerk ... then one day they got married ... and lived happily ever after ... moral of the story ... sometimes the story doesn't have to make sense ...

he was a hero in his country ... having fought in three independence wars ... his facial scars seemed to emit a supernatural energy ... which manifested itself as a halo above his head ... he had the sweetest smile ... but his eyes told silent tales of the horrors he had seen ...

he realized why God had taken those things away from him ... he didn't question His wisdom ... he knew that if He hadn't taken those things away ... things would have gone differently ... very differently ... it's true what they say ... everything happens for a reason ...

he could have left her for someone else ... they were both still so young ... but she was so sick ... she looked like she might die soon ... he could've just pulled the plug then ... or just abandoned her at the hospital ... but he stayed by her side ... trying every possible medicine ... but in his heart he knew that it was all for nothing ... she was going to die ... and when she did ... he knew he would remarry ...
