Flowers in the brick building

A woman walks down a street just when the brightness of the sky starts to fade.
In the corner of her eye, she catches a curious sight.
She sees these flowers that seem to illuminate with an unearthly glow, growing out of clay pots across the street through an open door of an unassuming brick building.
She sees these flowers so vividly, more so than anything that reaches her sight.
Filled with curiosity, she walks toward these flowers which seem to sing a quiet song.
As she reaches the door with her mind focused on seeing the flowers dancing in stillness,
she suddenly stops.
She awakes from her short daze and she notices that she had stopped at the door.
The door in front of her was closed, as if it was never open.
She knocks, waits a short while, and with sudden strange impatience, she turns the knob and opens the door.
A bounty of quiet yet glistening flowers fills the room, gracing her sight.
The now night sky fills the room with soft light through the countless glass windows through one side of the room and the ceiling.
Her heart is filled with wonder and joy, yet, a speck of sadness ripples through her.
She is reminded of her brother who died just a few months ago.
She imagines her brother's bright smile and his voice saying these words...
"I love you, Sis."
She quietly feels in her heart that her brother took care of these flowers.

Circle

revising is unfinished.

I like you
Huh?
I said I like you.
...
What about you?
Give me some of your blood.
Wh-what?
Just some of your blood, a small amount.
What are you going to do with it?
Don't ask me questions, I don't need it now, just give it to me whenever.
Any container will do.
I'll show you what I'll do with it. We'll talk more about this after you bring it.
...Tomorrow then.
You'll do it?
Yeah. Here, same time.
...Right.

*tomorrow*

Here.
*he takes out a container of red liquid.
*the other person wordlessly pulls out a blank piece of paper*
-he opens the container, dips his finger, and he draws a circle.
-then he draws these symbols made of lines around this circle.
-2 short, 2 long
-2 long, 2 short
-1 short, 2 long, 1 short
-1 long, 2 short, 1 long
-and finally he draws a cross in the the circle, connecting these symbols.

I use 10% of my magic to grant this person the possible happiness he would have with me. This happiness is added to what happiness he may find on his own. May this happiness guide him to stronger possible happiness.
*he hands the container back*
Here.
This will serve the same function.

What...what is this?

This is something that won't hurt you as much or cause you as much emptiness as I would. Burn the paper so the effect can't be manipulated. You should not attempt talking to me again. There is no longer any reason to.

You...
You're really...
Whatever... what a waste of time.
*he tosses the blood marked paper and leaves*

*the other person picks up the paper and takes out his lighter.*
 ...
I don't believe in magic myself...

Story 3

I want to know the person I can be the most happiest with,
You can tell me that right?

I have the the ability to find the answer to this, yes.

50 bucks right?
Here.
Now tell me.

A moment.
Summoning...
(You've summoned me once again human.
(I've been listening.
(Now...
That person...that person...you will meet that person in a week.
(...Are you listening? 
(That's not what I said.

Really?
Where?

It will be a place that you have never been before.
(...so then...
But you will meet the person once again at the place you like most being there.
(You won't give him the truth...
Do you wish to know more?

*he smiles*
-pain-
Let me think for a moment.

Take as much time as you need.
(You know...

Oh, I got it, tell me one thing about the person,
Something small,
I want every moment with this person to be special.

Alright.
Reveal a point.
(You often do these things...
...that person likes the sea.
(that I don't understand...
(that person actually likes the night sky...

The sea...

You may ask one more question.
(What if...

This is the most important question.

...
(He meets this person you describe...

I've always thought about this when I thought about the other person.

...
(...he won't find the happiness he seeks.

Tell me how I can make this person happy.

(By simply being with them.
To make that person happy...
(Tell him the truth, that person would be happy...
You should take them...
(No matter...
to see the world...
(what...
Now...
(Why are you lying to him?
Are you satisfied with these answers?

...I am.
I feel like...
I can trust you.
...

I get this special feeling...
When I hear your words...
...

Your words satisfy me a great deal...

...Thank you.

*he smiles*
Sure thing.
...thanks,
thank you very much.
*he extends his hand*


*shakes*
(his hands are warm...
I hope you find this person.

*he smiles again*
*he leaves*

...
(So are we done?
(Return me to my world.
...
(What is it?
I command you to use your magic.
(..for this human?
Such threads that connect souls,
of the many, the threads which are
most thick and of strongest color.
(This magic you want me to use...
With a blade made of a fragment of my soul,
I cut.
(This is the first time...
(You asked me to directly use my powers.
Reconnect these threads to a person of my words.
(This was the real reason...
A person he shall meet within the bounds of next week,
at a place he has never been.
A person he shall meet again
at a place he is most comfortable.
(You first sought my power isn't?
A person who loves the ocean,
A person who will be happy when they see the world with him.
And finally...
A person that will make him most happy...
(...
With this needle made of a second shard of my soul.
I mend these cut threads.

(Human who summoned me...
(When the the night sky...
(Was most beautiful...
(with use of my power, it is done.

those silly stories that i write

story 1

god carved adam out of an oak tree.
in love with his creation, he carved jacob from willow.
jacob will always love adam but adam will never love him back.

story 2

The hero, pulling out his sword from the dark wizard's chest:
You can no longer oppress the people of this world wizard.
Now do what you promised me, before you breathe your last breaths.
-Your family was it?...
Yes, you said you would return them to me.
-...
Are you going to do it or must I take your head?
-it-it is done.
It is done? Where are they? I want to see them.
-Your village is restored, they are there.
I'll believe you when I see them again.
May the gods deal you righteous judgement and have you burn in eternal flames.
*The hero leaves.*

*A tall figure enters the room though a portal*
...so he defeated you...
At last, the evil lord has been defeated.
So the reign of darkness in this world has ended.
*The body of the wizard disappears.*
It wasn't possible for him to win.
All these obstacles...he overcame all of them.
Were they really obstacles?
You even lead him right to your castle...

He will never see this castle again.
*another figure appears behind the tall figure.*

So...is he dead?
-No. He is still alive.
So is he going back to his village in the mountains?
-His village isn't there.
What happened to this promise you had with him.
-It is fulfilled.
I don't understand. What did you do?
-I sent him to a different world.
Why didn't you just kill him?
What kind of world did you send him to?
-A world where I don't exist.
-His world is no longer here.
-I created a world just for him.
-A world I may never enter.
Why?
-...I have the power to kill his family.
-I have the power to easily destroy him and everything that he holds dear.
-If I ever did such a thing...
-I'll destroy...
Your humanity...you still have it don't you?
...
The darkest one in this world is you and you still have the weakness of humanity...
...
You've used him to become darker.
