Stability didn’t live there either. Hence the tiny, artless, half empty, beige apartment, with no need for furniture because we couldn’t stay longer than a few months.
Money didn’t live there consistently. Hence living in the tiny, artless, half empty, beige apartm...
My crimson obsession locked her into place. Movement was no longer available to her. Up and down she desperately moved her body trying to break free of the ropes that bound her, but the harder she struggled, the stronger the knot.
