Yelling, shouting

I must get out

I sighed, taking my dark brown hair out of the hair tie it was in, before packing my German book into my bag. I didn’t notice that a piece of paper had fallen out of it – a letter to my crush, Marcus. I had liked him since he started at our school last year and sat in front of me in English, which is w...

I was saddened to see my next door neighbors go. I watched from my window as they loaded their trunk with green and red suitcases. I watched until I couldn’t see their black sedan anymore.

That was 2 months ago. Now, I watched as the new neighbors moved in next door. A family of four. When I first saw them, they seemed normal. Harmless. The men wore sweater vests and the women wore button up blo...

She heard a yes and began to curl her hair, Porsha was awaken by the smell of smoke and burning hair. “RILEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING “!
