September 9th
Little Red Riding Hood dropped her basket as she heard no noice.
As she was picking it up, this blast, big and loud.
She traced the wrecking sound and found a huge, scary-looking man in the distance, he was hunting for ducks.
Little Red Riding Hood walked for 2 more hours, she didn't know about the shortcut, so it took her another 3 full hours to get to the lake. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a shadow rose from behind.
Little RedHood kept on walking oblivious of her company. She stopped to drink some water
and the shadow took the oppotunity to catch up.
-"Excuse me young lady."
-"Yes?"
-"I couldn't help but to notice you have been walking for long, may I ask where are you headed?"
-"I'm going to my grandma's house to deliver this basket, she's been sick for a couple of days now."
-"Oh! what a lovely child, caring for her grandma, Is it OK if I ask where does she live?"
-"Just across the lake, an hour from here."
-"An hour? don't you know about the shortcut, young lady? You are actually ten minutes away if you take the shortcut."
-"Really? Which way is it?"
-"See that stump on the right? Go that way and follow the trail, turn left at the big stone and another left at the willow, you'll be there in no time."
-"Thank you very much kind sir."
-"My pleasure, well, I'm running late now, young lady, please take care."
-"Yes, Thank you sir."
RedHood headed for the stump on the right as the shadow grew smaller.
The trail was almost invisible and the forest got thicker.
A couple of minutes later the big stone showed itself, RedHood went left.
The willow wasn't anywhere to be seen, and the thickness of the forest was unsettling.
She came closer to me, shattered my personal space and went for the lips.
My eyes, wide open, flooded with astonishment. I kissed back, but her mouth wasn't there anymore.
I opened my eyes only to find a mirror of themselves, but greener, less astonished and more determined.
she didn't smile, she didn't blink and though her eyes were wet, she wasn't crying.
She got closer again, but stopped and took off her jacket, I could feel her breathing on my nose,
it felt like a thousand winds, an unbearable storm.
Another left at the willow, and there it was the house, it took a little longer than ten minutes.
Redhood made haste and knocked the door three times.
No one answered.
RedHood turned the knob and the door opened by itself.
-"Grandma?"
-"Oh, you made it sweety, come on in, please, I'm in here." RedHood walked in.
-"Grandma! How are you?" While hugging.
-"I'm fine, it's just a little cold, I feel better now that you are here."
-"Grandma, I brought you this basket, so you get better."
-"Thank you, honey. You made it quite quick, young lady, I wasnt expecting you for another hour."
-"Oh, yes, I met this kind sir that showed me a shortcut."
You know how it ends, or may be you don't, I don't really care, I got bored, end it as you wish.


Semptember 11th

...Izzy woke me up, she wanted to turn back time to the 4th, and she did.


September 13th
There she is, lying on my bed, what the fuck's going on?


She's gone, I didn't hear her leave, she didn't say bye, she just vanished.


September 14th
Talk? no we didn't talk, no, not a "Hi" not a "Bye" nothing, but thanks for making me notice, Dr. Shitface.


September 15th

Ok, I'll tell you.
RedHood heard a knock on the door.
There he was, the kind sir.
-"Kind sir! what are you doing here?"
-"Young Lady, I finished my errands and wanted to see if you made it safe and sound."
-"That's so kind of you, sir. I made it here in no time thanks to the shortcut."
You look tired, sir, want to come in for a cup of tea?"
-"Oh, That's very sweet of you, young lady, but I have to return home to my lovely wife."
-"I see, then please accept these fruits for the way home."
-"Thank you young lady, I hope your grandma gets well."
-"Thank you, I know she will. Take care, kind sir."
-"Take care, young lady, until we meet again."
He tipped his hat and left, RedHood closed the door and returned to her grandma.

We went to the cemetery. Awful day, the sun was everywhere.
Izzy wasn't well, she spend the night at home.


November 3rd
We went to the jail to visit Trent.
I never saw that look on his face before, he knows he is done.


November 29th
Izzy called me, she was crying, I only heard "dead".
I called Trent and went to her house, she was really upset.
Her brother was dead, there he was, hanging peacefully.


November 28th
No funeral, don't know where the body is, don't know where Izzy is.
R.I.P Trevor.


November 30th
Izzy is a mess, she's on drugs now, Trent told me she's almost broke.


December 2nd
She is been living here for over a week.
I think she is getting serious.

December 4th
Izzy's out of town for a couple of days, a friend in Nashville called her.
Trent and I went for some drinks, he told me how he almosts killed a punk in a barfight.

December 6th
We are living together now, it's kinda official.
Trent got a nice deal and he is getting quite the money.

December 7th
I went for some beers. While I was waiting I saw this dude, he was getting really close to her.
He whispered some shit to her ear. I couldn't hear him, but I could. His hand, way out of place.
I grabbed someone's glass, I was determined to introduce it to this asshole's face.
I pushed and pulled thru the crowd, but 6 feet away from him, I tripped, dropped the glass and right before touching the ground I tackled the son of a bitch. Fists, blood and yells. I could feel Trent pulling me from behind, but it was useless.
I kept hammering and smashing, I heard his nose breaking, his blood splattered on my face, my fists bleeding numb.
Izzy stood there, no action, no scream, no nothing, she just watched. Soon enough, I had ten guys trying to separate us.
I got kicked out, that asshole lying on the floor unconscious.
I walked home, red dripping followed my footsteps, sirens on the horizon.

December 10th
Travis,
I'll be staying for another week.
I know we had plans, but Liza's brother died,
he hanged himself, she's devastated.

See you in a week,

Iz-.

January 9th
After arriving to Nashville I went to Liza's.
Trevor knocked my down and hit me with a vase in the shoulder.
The water, the flowers, no blood. Liza screamed and Izzy came running.
I threw Trent against the wall and got up, ready for a kick to the face.
I woke up tied to a chair in one of the rooms. After some time,
Izzy came in with a glass of water and apologized.
Said Trent thought I was some thug or something.
She didn't untie me, she sat on the bed, looked at me and gave me a smirk.
I ask her to untie me, and she did. We walked down the stairs, Trent apologized.
Everyone was really upset since Liza's brother's death.
Liza was a mess, she looked awfully charming.
I got closer to her, and told her how sorry I was for her loss, though I wasn't.
She tried to smile and before she could try to thank me, we were kissing each other.
She went for, actually, Id rather keep the rest in my mind.

January 10th
Got a new job, it's a little better than the older one.

January 11th
Izzy finally moved in.

January 13th
I woke up, and went downstairs for a cup of coffee.
Liza was already up, Trent and Izzy came down half an hour later.
Izzy and me were talking while Trevor and Lizza discussed over some book.
-"Remember that movie we watched together?"
-"The something record?"
-"Yeah, that one. That book, its about the film."
I walked to the couch and listened to their conversation.
Izy followed me. She sat next to Trevor and slowly lifted her left arm, carefully placing her fingers around his neck.
Trents head almost detached, he fell down while dyeing the carpet crimson.
She spared Liza, maybe her screams made her pass unnoticed. She dashed towards me, knife first.
I didn't duck, I didn't yell, I didn't run.
But I did took the knife from her hand, hurting her wrist in the process,
and drawing a little unintentional line on her face.
She let a cry out and backed down.
Liza watched in shock as Travis pushed gently the knife inside of her, only once.
He spared Lizy, as if she was invisible. She didn't move, she wasn't screaming anymore.
I'm not even sure if she was even breathing.
I dropped the knife, left the house and drove back home.

January 14th
Trent called, he's throwing a party tomorrow.

January 16th
Trent moved in with Liza yesterday.

January 17th
I got fired, luckily my old boss took me back.

January 20th
I proposed to Lizzie yesterday,
we are getting married on August 29th.

Here's where everything starts, not at the beginning, not at the end, but somewhere in the middle.
Now to be completely honest, I've no fucking clue of what I'm writing about. You see, I have some great ideas of aliens who are not little green-skinned-bug-eyes-big-head-three-fingers-superior-beings-really-really-and-I-mean-really-bad-I-want-to-destroy-the-earth kinda guys, but are more like us, in fact, just like us, complete assholes, you could say, BUT, I don't feel like going all Carl Sagan right now.
I could also finish writing one of the other stories I've started some time ago, ßµ† I'm too lazy.

"24, 25, 26.. What were those, again?"
"Иumbers, John, those are numbers."
"Oh, right, just like one, then."
"Well yes, one is a number two."
"But I thought it was one, not two." "You are confused right now, John."
"It will all make sense in the end."

"John! fuck, John! are you Ok?"
"John, answer me!"
"I'm fine."
"I thought you were dead."
"I'm sleeping."
"Right." "Good night, Sean."
"Иight."
"How do you know it's good?"
"I don't, that's why you gotta try it."
"Oh, Ok." "It's good."

"I don't understand though."
"You are not listening, what did I tell you?"
"Bt when is the end?"
"The end of what?"
"I don't know." "The end, when I can understand."
"Well, when do you want it to be?"
"Иow, I want to understand."
"Ok, but if you do, then it will be over."
"I..."
"How many times have you asked this?"
"Two."
"You mean one, then."

"I don't know."

"Well, there's only one way to find out."
"How do I end it?"
"Oh, you don't end anything, you just.. understand."
"But I don't.."
"Understan, I know, that's just because you are still in the middle."

"What was 27, again?"
"A number."
"Ok, finish it."
"Are you sure?"
"Иo, just do it, I want to understand."

"Fine, then."




APPEИDIX I.a

You didn't understand, not even in the end.




APPEИDIX I.b

APPEИDIX II

What you are looking for it's below, I wouldn't read it though. 




APPEИDIX IV

Well, I guess I found something to write about after all. 
Much better than alien assholes if you ask me.

Good Иight John.
