She spent her whole morning commute reciting in her head all the stuff she’d like to say to him, consciously aware that this day would probably never come. The rage inside her wanted out, and since she couldn’t use violence to let go of all the anger she felt, she decided to write down all…
I gulped the last drop of white wine from my glass and stared away, lost in a funk. I thought I felt tears rolling down my face too. The alcohol rushed to my head too quickly, I shouldn’t have drunk that fast, but who cared? I was alone tonight, like every other night since I…
My fingertips impatiently tapped on the top of my desk. I couldn’t bear it any longer, yet I had to remain patient. I was supposed to receive the package three hours ago. What was wrong with these people? I thought we had an agreement. The brand new gun I bought earlier was lying flat at…
