Neverending one

by Olha Savchuk

It was an unbearably windy and rainy night. No, even early morning, since the nearest city hall campanile struck  midnight some time ago.

Another Version

by Olha Kolesnyk

Silver moon light was in front of the window in left lonely house. We passed away years and years ago.

Nina and Trigorin

by Olha Kolesnyk  

Nina: Are you sure in what you are talking about? Maybe you are just too concentrated on yourself? You behave like a mouse. You are always seeing what you want to see.

A Fortune-Teller Story

by Vlad Levickij

        I have never believed in superstitions, broken mirrors and black cats. But once I was lying on my bed having a dream. It was the unusually colourful and real one.

A Haunted Place

by Masha Dumanska

David moved to LA last autumn when he passed an interview and got a job as a lawyer in one of the big company. He was thrilled to begin his professional life in such a huge city.

A Haunted House

by Vlad Levickij

  My summer cottage is the right place for spending time after intensive studying. It consists of a small area with flowers, vegetables, kitchen and two-story house in the centre, which is old a bit, nearly of my age – 20.

A Long Time Ago

 by Yulia Shynkarenko.

PART 1  Do you have a skeleton in your cupboard? I do.
Everybody has some stories, which he or she never tells anyone.

Soltary man

 by Yakovenko Andrey

 The train was passing another tunnel. Rail sleepers were rushing past. A solitary traveller looked out of the window. It was evening time. The sunset rays were illuminating the only tree on the hill. There had been a lonesome maple with yellowed leaves.

The Boat

by Vlad Levickij

I came here exactly when the stormy and grey water began turning into a calm glassy surface with an orange reflection. The brilliant clean sky filled with heavy clouds with a big circle at the end of the horizon, as if it was punched by someone’s bullet.

I, me and myself

by Anastasiy Mikitiuk

This morning I woke up as usual. I felt cheerfulness and energy from top to toe. Today is the very important day for me – I’m going to pass my last exam and finish my studying. I had been waiting for this moment for years.  4 years ago I chose the wrong specialization and now I’m feeling happiness in every cell of my body.

Preface

by Masha Dumanska

Every time I remember myself I always dreamt of being a successful person. I always wanted to study hard and to get good marks. At school teachers praised me for studying. Then I wanted to enter Kyiv-Mohula Academy because that was the only university in Ukraine, in which I wanted to study.

Strange meeting

    by Olha Kolesnyk

Today I had a meeting with my clone. No, not actually with the clone, but it was I.

The only confusing thing was that I was talking to myself nine years younger. It was very

strange discussion, which I scrutinize below.

Loneliness and emptiness

by Maria Shylo
Sometimes I dream about reality
Sometimes I feel so gone
Sometimes I dream about a wild wild world
Sometimes I feel so lonesome
(Manu Chao)

Sometimes I open my eyes in the morning and feel that I am lonely. It is just a sensation for a second, but this feeling of loneliness is extremely strong. I think that anyone and anything can`t change this. 

no chance to say goodbye

                                                                  by Olha Kolesnyk

  “What do you feel when you see all the homeless on the street?
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye? How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?”

– There’s nothing. And there. Here, too. What do we have here? All the same...

by Vlad Levickij

  This monologue could characterize the early life of Frank Henningstone. The point when everything changed – when Frank was 20-year-old student of The Royal Academy in London, England. The life of Frank was a typical human-misanthrope’s, who has lost all faith in humanity, altruism and virtues. In this case, there were two solutions – to become a cynical and cold careerist or...just cold.
