Someone knocked on my door.

When I answered, I didn't see anyone, which was strange.

So, I shut the door.

And when he knocked again, I shot him within range.

The rabbit hole beckoned me.

And curious, as I was, I fell in, wonder struck.

But now I'm quite worried.

How will I extinguish this curiosity that holds me tight?❋

I never knew until now. She had loved me in silence for all these years. But now she is gone. I am left to ache emptily for a requited love.

I was wrong, you know. There was something last night I forgot to tell you. It was so very important! Will you hate me now that I still can't remember?

The young lioness ran away. To discover who she truly was deep inside and out. She met a traveling duo. And soon they would all find their inner true selves.

We never saw it coming. But then again, when was our life together ever predictable? Someday it will be okay. For now we'll enjoy the sunset and try to forget.

I think I'm losing it.

Before I'd skip happily, thinking about the wonders of life.

Now, it's nothing like that.

I sit alone on the floor staring at absolutely nothing.

The gun is already cocked.

Tears escape one last time, as the barrel touches her temple.

Her fingers clasp the trigger.

Was this a tragic ending, or a new beginning?

It happened while she worked. 

One tenacious sperm from the previous night reached the egg.

Sparks and flash in vivo.

Two sets of genetic information combine into a new life.
