“Martinaaaaaaa.” Brandt groaned from under his oversized poncho. As the rain powered over the city the ground grew slick. As each raindrop fell Brandt tensed more as he and Martina explore the viewing deck far above even the tallest casinos and hotels.
“Brandtttttttttt.” Martina responds coyly as she makes dramatic ballroom style steps toward the edge of the glass viewing deck. Martina is uncov...
I quietly balance on my heels, if you can even call them that. They are little 3 inch sandals.
I admire the cap infront of me, feathery and glitzy in pink glitter. I was strictly forbidden to customize mine. Mom said it would be childish. I reminded her of all the times she has called me that word. I was to go do the dishes.
“Caroline Gald” The Dean announces. Rapturous applause follows a...

Katrina, 6
“Mom… when are we gonna get home…. I’m hungry…” Katrina groans, kicking the seat infront of her.
“Katrina Vivian Marcelo! Do not kick any of my seats unless you want to walk home.” Her mother responds, glaring at her from the rear view mirror.
“But I’m bored!!” Katrina argues back, Katrina is convinced that this is the home run of an answer, how c...
“How’d you-“ The auburn haired man begins to ask.
“If you say, “How’d you end up here tonight?” I. WILL. LOSE. IT!” The bartender whips around with a shout. Her hair tussled up in a messy bun. Sweat coating the back of her neck as the pulsing techno beats assault her ears.
“Well I… I thought it was good…”. The auburn haired man responds, his cheeks a crimson red. He sheepishly sits down o...
“Ms. Melvy, your defense has made it clear you want to give a statement.”
“Yes your honor.”
The woman with her rosy blond hair tied back to just her shoulder steadys herself with a long breath. Sitting up out of the uncomfortable wooden chair.
Thanks to her lawyers Sofia was able to get out of her orange jumpsuit and into a tight burgundy colored knit dress. It was never a good color f...
“Please… just let me in… I have coffee cake!” The girl on the other side of the door pleads.
I let out a giggle and cover my mouth immediately after. “Dammit.” I whisper. Cursing my giggle and the lamp I left on in the first place.
Shelby’s ring touches my lips, it’s cold metal feels much too fancy on my dry lips.
I imagine what Shelby would have done. Sure, she didn’t like coffee cak...
Prologue~
The family of four practically bursted into the house. Kathryn remarked how the old wooden door didn’t pop off its hinges.
Summer was first to break away from the group. Her braids swung in the air as she sprinted through the entryway.
The rest of her family stood in awe. Well, in all honesty Deliah didn’t see the appeal. However, she was only freshly 2, her steps were s...
Begin with a breath
let the air fill you
Pull the cool metal
Like no one has before you
‘A mess’
‘Filth’
Wait till they’ve seen a mess at its best
At the hest of someone finally fed up
Like staring at the sun
Like you know things have yet to become
See that ‘Mess’ come alive infront of you
Something you only dreamed in your lonesome of coming true
You’ve created a monster
I’ve created a...
Marcy swiped from the memory, despite it constantly being replayed she still would blush. Her boyfriend, her Ricky, and his powder blue eyes that stared up at her at the botanical gardens. On bent knee, asking to marry her.
As silly as it sounded she had a routine of memories, the pair’s first date, their first kiss on the Ferris wheel, their anniversary dinners, and of course of that afterno...
“Ya know, it’s always cargo pants with you everyday rain or shine.” Stu says his eyes squinting at me.
I flop down on the threadbare lawn chair next to him and toss him back a middle finger. Since Stu turned away, the baseball that he was. keeping in air flung back down to a kid desperately waving for him to give it back.
“Hey don’t be a jerk he’s just a kid.” Yasmine says from h...
