I ran over and began pushing the bullies away. They were unrelenting when it came to Mark, and picked on him every day, but I had enough.

I got between Mark and the biggest boy, Brian. I stood in front o...

The night had been uneventful until Fanas’ friends called and asked if she wanted to go out,and enjoy some night life. “Does this place allow pets?” Fana asked, “Sure, they are always welcome.” Janet said before hanging up the phone.

The day was dark as the northern wind blew across the Great Lake Superior. The winter was on its way and the small crowd stood before the grave. It was a small gathering, but that was by design, the family didn’t want any gawkers.
