The Vita Arcanum: Short Stories Of Reality And Wonder

Life is a cascade of stories, some so simple they speak and relate to you, and other so wondrous they can only be birthed from the minds of the most daring. This is a yearning for adventure and a pinning for love, a taste of revenge and the consequences it sows. Fantasy, reality, love, hatred, all of this and so much more I would show, as we explore the pages of the Vita Arcanum.

Leo: "You don't have to say anything I understand."

Lana: "No you don't understand please Leo I Know I have been really angry at him but I'm ready to let go and let's move on with life."

Leo: "This is the reason I hate you so much because you gave birth to me and you have no sense."

Alex: "Don't talk to your mom that way."

Leo: "Do you think you have the right to teach me how to talk to my mother, well I'm very sorry for you because you can't just show up here and call yourself my dad and you think you have rights? you don't at all because I'm not your son and I will talk to her the way I want because she deserves it."

Alex: "Please I beg you to understand."

Lana: "Alex please leave us alone it's obvious he doesn't need you at all."

Alex: "I can't leave Lana because he is my son and I'm here to make amends so please give me the chance."

Lana: "I'm willing to give you a chance but my son is not ready, he's hurt and you need to give him time to heal so go."

Alex: "Our son not your son."

Lana: "Oh really his now our son wow since when did you care after you left me suffering alone with Leo! and now you are claiming your son."

Alex: "I'm sorry you raised him alone but now I'm doing well and I want to take him along with me to the US with my wife Vera."

Lana: "What did you just say to me say it again! I fucking dare you to say it again!"

Alex: "Please Lana calm down and let's talk in peace."

Lana: "You want to talk in peace right? fine! get out of my house now before I do something I will regret."

Alex: "I don't understand why you are being so angry about me taking my own son to where he belongs."

Lana: "Hahahaha your own son! you have no right! wait! who the hell do you think you are."

Alex: "I guess we will meet in court next week so be ready Lana."

Lana: "You are unbelievable and evil I hate you even more. After you used me and deceived me you even abandoned me and Leo, you are now claiming him."

Alex: "If I may correct, you used me instead because you had a husband but I wasn't married yet. You were the one who took me to your matrimonial bed to have sex with you, I refused but you insisted because you wanted revenge from what Bonat did to you and your best friend cheating on you for 2years even on your wedding day."

Lana: "What the hell are you saying!"

Alex: "the truth! so now you know it wasn't me you did this to yourself."
