  • Information Highway

    By the time I had known Jared for almost a year, I was finally starting to get suspicious. Suspicious that he would only meet me under the cover of darkness. I knew he was in the tech world, and he supposedly kept a secret and “ancient” network across several oceans running at all hours of…

  • The Pirates

    “I always have a bag packed.  Just in case,” I said noticing Angela looking at the bag in the corner of my room.  “Just in case of what?”  She asked skeptically.  I knew she was dying to look inside and see everything.  She was just nosy enough not to let it go.  “The pirates.  They…
