I wrote the following flash fictions.

The Japanese soldiers forcibly entered the dormitory and grabbed the screaming ladies.

DON'T KNOW!

She keeps on roaming around the office.

“Ma’am, please sit down.”

“Let’s talk. That will ease your feelings.”

“What for? It’s too late.”

“What late? Why?”

“The Administrator has decided to replace me as head of this office.”

“What replace? Have you received a memo?”

“You’ve not reached 65 years old, right?”

“I don’t know!”

James had wanted to climb Mt. Manduyog.
For two weeks, he walked daily, slept early and ate more balanced diets.

When he reached the top, he just sighed.

BYE
