Nica's Rotten Life Part 3

Warning: The following contains: strong language, verbal abuse, and references to violence. Reader discretion is advised. Author's Note: Tinker is the name of the character Tony Moran played in one episode of "The Waltons" (season 7, episode 16, 1979). That character is a jerk, too. Not as bad as this Tinker but close enough. Disclaimer: The following is a work of fan fiction. It is intended for entertainment purposes only. Any resemblance to actual persons living or deceased is purely coincidental. ~o~ Tinker returned home for dinner. “Don’t bother,” he told me when I offered him a plate. “I wouldn’t eat that crap if you paid me.” I remembered how excited Halloween Mask had gotten about a lasagna dinner. I wished I could get a real-life reaction like theirs. Tinker disappeared into the bedroom, and when he came out several minutes later, he had showered and changed clothes. He still carried the odor of motor oil with him, but I had gotten used to it after all these yea...

Nica's Rotten Life Part 2

Warning: The following contains: strong language and references to domestic abuse. Reader discretion is advised. Author's Note: Michael's online persona is fangirl.

I could eat breakfast in peace and read the newspaper before I resumed work on my novel. I booted up my laptop after I washed and put away my breakfast dishes. (If he returned home and found dirty dishes in the drain, he would hit me.) Before I opened the word processor program, I checked my e-mail. Freddy had spammed my inbox with messages. I read them all because he was my best friend and biggest fan. (We met online years ago. We messaged when we had free time.) I told him about the rejection letter from the publisher. I told him about my relationship pr...

Nica's Rotten Life Part 1

Warning: The following contains: physical and sexual abuse and strong language. Reader discretion is advised. Author's Note: I'm still working on "Akayuki". For now, this is something I wrote in 2024. The setting is modern day America. Nica is an aspiring writer stuck in an abusive relationship. Michael is her hermit neighbor. Freddy's the person who brings them together. Chucky's here, but quiet for now. Please don't mistake this as glorifying abuse. I'm not. If it feels too real, I've lived it so that's why. This is me healing, not glorifying. If you are in this situation, there is help. Don't be afraid to ask. Disclaimer: The following is a work of fiction. It is intended for entertainment purposes only. Any resemblance to actual persons living or deceased is purely coincidental.  ~o~ He hit me again. Closed my laptop before I had time to save my work and jerked my wheelchair away from the table. I knew without asking where we were going...

Akayuki (Red Snow)--Michael's Past Conclusion

Warning: The following contains strong language and references to violence and death. Reader discretion is advised. Author's Note: This concludes Michael's backstory. I didn't repeat the face-off with Charles Lee Ray (Chucky) since it's already in the main story. Sadly, until I write more, Akayuki is now on hiatus. Thank you for reading this far. Hopefully, we will meet again. 🎃❤️ Disclaimer: The following is a work of fan fiction. It is intended for entertainment purposes only. Any resemblance to actual persons living or deceased is purely coincidental. ~o~ Lonnie ran back to Michael and Annie's house, alone. None of the adults he needed were able to accompany him. The village doctor was in emergency surgery at the moment. A stranger had entered the village earlier, a man carrying a red katana, which he had used to hack off a sentry’s arm. As for Annie's father, he told Lonnie to go home. “It’s dangerous right now,” the village constable told him. “Until we fi...

Akayuki (Red Snow)--Michael's Past Part 8

Author's Note: Reminder: Chucky is still human. He hasn't transferred his soul yet.  Disclaimer: The following is a work of fan fiction. It is intended for entertainment purposes only. Any resemblance to actual persons living or deceased is purely coincidental. ~o~ Lonnie didn’t appear at the tea house the next day or the day after.  Michael assumed the boy had finally taken his advice and returned to school. Good. He belonged in school, not a tea house. When a week passed, Michael wondered what had happened to the boy.  “Ask his mother,” Annie suggested when he brought up the subject of Lonnie at dinner.  Michael shook his head. “I don’t know her, and her family is not my business.” He reached out and laid a hand on his wife’s pregnant belly. He smiled as their child chose that moment to kick. However, he couldn’t stop thinking as he rolled dango the next morning what he would do if his own child became distant. “Move over.” Lonnie. Pulling up a chair to the counter...

Any resemblance to actual persons living or deceased is purely coincidental. ~o~ On the walk home that evening, Lonnie didn’t chatter the entire time and Michael knew why. “How much did Loomis-sensei tell you about me?” Lonnie sighed in exasperation. “You are one selfish jerk.” “Excuse me?” Michael asked. “You think everyone talks about you.” “They don’t?” “Nope,” Lonnie said. “In fact, my mom didn’t even know who you were when I told her about you. She thought the tea house was permanently shuttered.” “Obviously, she’s wrong.” “I told her you and Annie reopened it. Then she asked if Annie was working while she was pregnant.”  “She would be if the doctor would let her,” Michael said. “Then Mom asked what Annie was going to do after the baby arrived, as far as running the tea house is concerned.” “She’...

Akayuki (Red Snow)--Michael's Past Part 6

Disclaimer: The following is a work of fan fiction. It is intended for entertainment purposes only. Any resemblance to actual persons living or deceased is purely coincidental. ~o~ “Let me be your assistant.” A month had passed and Lonnie still ditched school every weekday to spend time in the tea house “helping” Michael. Yes, actually helping and not harassing customers or Michael himself.  Michael expected this latest request. In fact, Annie had forewarned him. “Lonnie’s from a large family—mom, no dad, three brothers and two sisters. Lonnie’s the youngest. He gets lonely, so once he latches on to you, he’s yours until you dump him on someone else. Ask Laurie if you don’t believe me. He followed her around for months before you showed up and piqued his interest.” “No,” Michael answered. “What?! Why not?” Lonnie followed Michael out of the kitchen and into the dining room.  “You’re too short.” Michael approached the table where a man in a tan traveling cloak waited. “You’re t...
