Unsated


The id is the impulsive, child-like portion of the psyche that operates on the "pleasure principle" and only takes into account what it wants and disregards all consequences. - Freud (wikipedia.org)

She received her salary for the month. Forgetting about the bills piling up, she went to a nearby boutique and bought a blouse half the amount of her salary. She then went to the salon for a make-over. Her hair needs re-bonding... Then, with some money left in her purse, she went inside the grocer's and bought a large pouch of Doritos and 5 bars of Babe Ruth. She must taste such things which she was deprived of as a child...

Antonio's hands itched as he imagined the cellphone on his hand. Indeed, it would make him more "interesting" with that new model from LG. He hastily completed the form for his loan in a local bank. He won't mind the high interest of the loan as long as he could realize the look he would be projecting. He smiled as he pictured all eyes focusing on him with his new gadget.

When the toll for the dead at eight in the evening was announced by the church bells, Mokong smiled. He touched the strawberry-flavored condoms inside his pocket. and shivered at the thought of Lyka's breasts. He must prove his masculinity when the girl told him via text that "she is as delicious as crepe". He could not remember eating the food she related herself but he knew it must be yummy... His brother warned him about teen pregnancy but damn him, life is short!

The young child cried as he felt hunger. The mother continued with her story telling session with the neighbors. The child's cries intensified and the mother found a rubber slipper and hit the child's arms telling him to shut up. The child sobbed and started crawling to one corner of the house... He then noticed a dead cockroach and picked it.

The dead insect sounded crunchy inside the toddler's mouth. The little child smiled as he drooled.
