“Ms. Willams, you don’t understand! I need this job, nobody else has hired me and I am on the verge of losing my apartment unless I get this job.” I begged with tears in my eyes.
Ms. Williams looks around the room before meeting my eyes and whispers, “Okay, I will give you this job if you give me those gorgeous red Wendy Chu stilettos you are wearing. I know they are worth at least 20,000 dollar...
“I did not mean to kill her,” whispered Paul, his voice trembling as he stood over the lifeless body of his wife, Cordelia. Tears welled in his eyes as he realized the irreversible consequences of his momentary lapse in judgment.
It was just like any other evening. Paul and Cordelia had been arguing over finances, which often happened lately, but tonight it escalated beyond control. Harsh words w...
“Lydia Winters, Doctor Simmons will see you now.” the receptionist Maddie sitting behind the desk says.
I walk to the door, my hand shakes as I reach the doorknob and I remind myself that Doctor Simmons is here to help. I am wondering why I have been so nauseous the last week or so and certain foods I used to love like bacon now just the thought of these foods has me wanting to throw up. Even wh...
I open the medicine cabinet to look for the bottle I need. “Hydrogen peroxide, no. Rubbing alcohol, no. Listerine, no. Where is it?,” I whisper.

Work goes by so ...
If I could count the ways I love you, it would be a very high number. I don’t keep count of the ways I love you.
I love you every day, all day.
I love you even when you are a pain in the butt
I love you when you surprise me with fast food
I love you when you look at me and smile
I love you when you kiss me on the forehead when you see me
I love you when we are apart
I love you when you make f...
I walk into the Mom & Pap bookstore called Quill & Chill to find a book that I need for my last class before graduating. “Just this book and no others,” I whisper to myself. I scan the shelves, I find myself seeing books I want to buy and read at home.
