651 - The two faces of the city.

During the day, he couldn't stop thinking how much he hated the city because of how noisy and crowded it was; but during the night, he just sat next to the window of his penthouse to admire the city for how beauty and lit it was.

650 - The price of cheating.

The sound of the front door opening made them stop what they were doing.

"My husband has arrived!"
"What?! But wasn't he coming back until six?!"
"Yes, I don't know what may have happened, come, quick, hide under the bed, I can feel him coming by the stairs."

And when the man hid himself under the bed, she got up from the bed and ran to the door, where her husband has just arrived, and throwing herself into his arms exclaimed:

"What took you so long?! I almost have sex with him?!
"I'm sorry, darling, the neighbor stopped me for a second to talk about her cats" he said, calmed, while he pushed the mysterious button that was next to the door, and when he did it, from the floor under the bed started to come out thousands of needles that killed the man who was hiding there in just a couple of seconds.

The end.

648 - Melancholy.

"Is everything okay?" I asked him when I saw him sigh while he was staring out of the window.

"Uh? Ah! Yeah, yes, everything is fine, I'm okay, don't worry" he answered me and then, he gave me a fake smile for me to calm down.

646 - The secret under Mary's hat.

Mary never went out without her hat, and while out, she never took it off, so, as time passed by, the people of the town started to create stories about what was hiding Mary under her hat.

"Under Mary's hat, she hides a terrible monster with seven eyes and two heads" some may say.

"There's absolutely nothing under Mary's hat, not even hair, because she uses her hat all the time to hide her baldness" Others may say.

But the truth was that under Mary's hat was, indeed, something hidden; but it wasn't a monster nor her baldness, it was a little sunflower which had grown on the top of Mary's head due to the sunflower seed she had accidentally eaten when she was little.

643 - The running shoes.

One day, my father, the shoemaker, tired of seeing me cry because I always came at last in the races of the school, made me a pair of running shoes with a pair of little wings on its sides, with which, according to him, I'd never lose another race; but I never knew if the running shoes worked or not, because I never wore them, I was ashamed of wearing a pair of running shoes with little wings on its sides.

The end.

In a abandoned house:

"It's alright, alright, I'll talk, but please, don't kill me, what you're looking for is..."
"Are ya sure of what ya sayin'?"

"Kill 'im!"
"WHAT?! But..!"
BANG!

At the site.
"Boss, we've searched all the place and still don't find it"
"That bastard lied to us!"

The end.
